Called To Camp

One night, at a friend’s house, I ran into a local believer girl I knew. She had been called into the police station several times in the last week for her registration. Each time, she feared they were going to take her away to one of the many horrific “re-education” camps that are popping up around our province. She told of how she had to daily turn these fears over to the Lord and accept His will. We spent a long time just praying together that night that God would strengthen her and give her courage. Just days after I left the country, I learned she had been taken away. Another person described her boldness in going, as if the Lord was calling her to go and be a witness for Him in the dark hopelessness of these camps. She is not the only believer I know currently serving time. Please continue to lift these brothers and sisters up daily. They are being salt and light in ways we can’t even begin to understand. The pressure on them to conform is tremendous.
