The European Baptist Federation (EBF) General Secretary, Tony Peck, has called on all EBF member Unions and Churches to pray for peace in Egypt at this present time after the violence and bloodshed of last week.

Friday, March 1st is World Day of Prayer 2013. Services begin at sunrise in the Pacific and follow the sun across the globe. Women, men and children in more than 170 countries and regions will participate in this ecumenical movement of believers from many traditions who come together to observe a common day of prayer.

Please pray for Christians in Egypt (locals and expats) to not get tempted to “run” when things get hard. Please pray for The Bible Society of Egypt to think of creative ways to bring God’s Word to the people in appropriate ways during these difficult times…
