Rupesh is a pastor in India. He converted to Christianity six years ago when a simple prayer to Jesus healed his son. SInce, he’s been barred from accessing vital village services, his home has been attacked, he’s been surrounded and beaten and his church has been destroyed.“Through the blows, they kept repeatedly asking why I called myself a Christian. With each blow they said, ‘Now tell us, will you still go to church?’ Through the pain, I only repeated what I knew. I kept trying to say, ‘Jesus is real. I have seen the goodness of the Lord. He is merciful and life giving.’”“I don’t want to go from my village to another place. I will stay. Only then will God’s name be spread in my village.”Pray now for Rupesh and his family. Ask God that through Rupesh’s commitment, his persecutors own faith would be challenged and that through his example, many would come to know Jesus. -- source link
