Pastor Andrew Brunson, after he lost 50 lbs. in Turkish prison. (Image source: American Center for Law and Justice)
He has been imprisoned since October, 2016. His trial begins today!
Maybe he opted not to select Midnight Express as his in-flight entertainment when traveling to Turkey.
I was glad to FINALLY see Pastor Brunson’s story on Mainstream Media tonight (on CBS nightly news). Hope it’s on many other shows as well, including liberal and conservative news.
Prayers said for Pastor Brunson!!!!
Back in 1987, 15 missionaries in Kenya were accused of being part of a $100 million KKK plot to overthrow seven African countries, beginning with Kenya.
Two couples were deported within 12 hours and a third couple within 24 hours.
Thankfully, the rest of us were not jailed but given a week to leave the country. We sold or gave away all our things then after a week the Government of Kenya returned our passports and said, “You can go back to work.” I guess things like this “just kinda go with the territory!”
Please pray for Pastor Brunson and his family! He is from a local church and several of our mission’s staff are friends of his.
