Radstock Ministries

Posted by Paul Williams.

Radstock's connections often put us at the heart of situations that are politically tense and uncertain.

Today (2nd July 2008) we received an email from one of our contacts in Ulaan Baatar, the capital of Mongolia, detailing severe disturbances following the election there on June 29th. The opposition believes that the election has been ‘stolen' by the ruling party.

Five people have been killed, with more than 300 hurt, buildings have been set on fire, and hundreds have been arrested, according to the BBC news site (see link below). Ulaan Baatar is under a 4-day dusk-to-dawn curfew.

Please pray for a rapid resolution of the situation there and for calm to return; for our partners to know God's peace and protection, and opportunity for witness to the One in whom all our hungers are satisfied.
