Palestinian Christians afraid to leave Gaza
Missions Network News - Wed, 01/07/2009 - 00:00
Israel (MNN) -- Israel says it won't agree to an international ceasefire proposal unless a guarantee is made that the smuggling tunnels are found, destroyed and not rebuilt. In the meantime, organizations helping Palestinian Christians are asking the world to pray that the violence will end. President of Open Doors USA Carl Moeller says Palestinian Christians have nowhere to turn. "They're not part of Hamas. They're not radical Islamic terrorists. And, they're not Israelis. So the Israelis see them as Palestinians, and the Palestinian terrorists see them as Christians who are not part of their Islamic movement. It's a tough place to be." Moeller says seeds of the Gospel have been planted. "Brother Andrew, our founder, has shared Christ with all of the leadership of Hamas. We're praying these seeds that Andrew and others have sown would take root. Ultimately, the only hope for peace in Gaza is the Prince of Peace, Jesus Christ."

2009 a year of narrowed focus for Europe ministry
Missions Network News - Wed, 01/07/2009 - 00:00
International (MNN) -- 2009 looks to be a year of narrowed focus of outreach to Muslims for Greater Europe Mission. President Henry Deneen says their teams have established two "breakthrough" cities in Cologne, Germany and Sophia, Bulgaria. "We're seeing a corridor running from Germany through Bulgaria down into Turkey. We're trying to focus prayer, people and resources on those two cities to impact not only the indigenous European populations but also the Muslim populations." Deneen acknowledges the challenges of this strategy. He says you can pray in a number of ways: "First of all, pray that we see breakthroughs in Sophia and in Cologne. Second, pray that God would cause a movement of rapidly producing churches all across Europe, North Africa and Turkey. Third, pray that financial resourcing would be provided. Fourth, pray that we could move into a global prayer movement."

Financial crisis hurts children's hospital ministry in Uganda
Missions Network News - Wed, 01/07/2009 - 00:00
Uganda (MNN) -- Elsewhere, while Uganda has made significant progress in its fight against poverty, the global financial crisis is crushing. Derek Johnson with CURE International says their children's hospital is feeling the impact. "We've seen around 15 to 16 percent inflation for 2008, which is the highest on record since they started recording inflation in Uganda. That's mostly with fuel, food and other household goods," which means some families will put off needed surgeries. In addition, donations are down. However, Johnson says they serve those who need help, regardless of their ability to pay. The operations can be life-changing in more ways than one. "The number one thing I hear is how much our staff treats them with respect, love and compassion. That makes an impact on people, and they will want to understand more about why this hospital is different from other hospitals in Uganda. That's a great gate for the Gospel, because that gives us a chance--our spiritual team as well as our staff--to share, 'Here's who we are as Christian men and women.'"
