Supplied by a UK colleague:

Simon Manchester on the searching questions Jesus asks us and how they lead to growth. #9 there is an early report that the kidnapped Nigerian Anglican bishop of Gwagwalada has been released, but it is a sole report at the moment.  Please pray for him, and for others.

PRAYER
We give thanks this week for HM the Queen.  Please pray for the peace and safety of Nigeria.  On Friday there was one report of the release of Bishop Moses Bukpe-Tabwaye of Gwagwalada shortly after his car had been found - pray it is confirmed; there was also good news from Ethiopia and Sudan in court cases against Christians, but continued challenges in Syria, Iraq, India and Turkey; and please also pray for the Diocese of South Carolina.
