Persecuted Uyghur Christians
Greetings! I am Alimjan Yimit's wife, Gülnur. Alimjan, by God's sovereign grace met the Lord, receiving Jesus as his savior in 1995 and becoming one of the very few Christians among Xinjiang's 12 million Muslim-background Uyghurs. In September 2007, the Kashgar, Xinjiang Ministry of Ethnic and Religious Affairs issued a notice accusing Alimjan of spreading Christianity in the Kashgar area. On January 11, 2008 he was arrested by the Kashgar Public Security Bureau (police). He remained incarcerated and his case left up in the air for almost two years until on November 25, 2009, the Kashgar Intermediate Court harshly sentenced him on a made-up charge to 15 years in prison and 5 years deprivation of his political rights.

A Prayer to Help You Comfort Others - Your Daily Prayer - April 25
Have you ever wondered if there is any purpose in your suffering? We certainly don’t go looking for suffering—it comes to us because life is a journey through difficulties and triumphs. Sufferings are a reminder of what Jesus Christ went through and it is a way for us to encourage others.
