Today’s TGP post is dedicated to prayers for Josh and Meagan Sullivan and family. Since his kidnapping during a church service last week, Josh’s whereabouts have been unknown, and a ransom has been demanded.
1. Pray for Josh’s soon and safe return.
2. Pray for peace and strength for Josh and all the Christians involved, from his wife / children / extended family to other missionaries to members of his church who witnessed the event.
3. Pray for the salvation of the kidnappers.
The Sullivans serve as missionaries in South Africa. Here is a link to their April prayer letter, written not long before he was kidnapped:
On his Facebook page tagline, Josh Sullivan has Philippians 1:21: “For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.”
His father-in-law asks that Christians do the same thing that Christians in the first century did when Peter was captured: “Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the church unto God for him.” (Acts 12:5)
