Christian Converts Opposed by Community

When Algerian Muslims become followers of Christ, they often experience rejection from their families or job loss. Once the local Muslim community knows of their new faith, Christian converts may struggle to find replacement work. With the help of the global body of Christ, one convert who has had difficulty providing for his family since becoming a Christian is now starting a dairy business, hoping to sell cheeses to provide for his family. Another Christian, who formerly worked as an Islamic teacher in an area where many radical Islamists live, is struggling to provide for his family since losing his job. He also has been forced to hide his new faith from radical Muslims who could possibly kill him and his whole family. Front-line workers ask for prayer that the first Christian’s new dairy business will be successful and for creative ways to help the other Christian safely grow in his faith and support his family.
