FOREIGN MISSIONARIES BEING INVESTIGATED BY PSB - RCMI

Some of our missionary friends in Yunnan, China are experiencing great difficulties. They have had to leave their home and move about from place to place due to investigation by the PSB (police). While they have been away, the PSB has visited their house and they will now have to stay away through the end of the year. This is especially trying as they have young children. The main reason that they are not able to return for some time is because the locals working with them are having the same troubles and the consequences for them being involved are much heavier than for a foreigner. Please pray for this network of friends, both the missionaries and locals, for their safety ,and the continuing work that they must now oversee from a distance.
