Hello Missionaries and Friends of MorningStar Missions, We invite you to read and subscribe to The MorningStar eJournal published monthly online to help you grow in your Christian walk. Rick Joyner, Founder of MorningStar Ministries, and I desire to strengthen our missionaries and equip them with many resources to help be fruitful disciples of Jesus Christ. You can download this journal here. This month includes an article by me about increasing persecution some of our missionaries are facing in some parts of the world. We ask you to pray for the persecuted church in many nations. We invite you to check out our new web site that our webmaster, Nancy Daniel, has been working very hard on for many months. Each of our missionaries will have their own page(s) and their own url address to help promote and educate viewers about their ministry. We ask your patience as we are still having volunteer interns from MSU help upload data and updates to the site. Please email your feedback to missionsbase@gmail.com Please send us your prayer requests for our intercessors to lift up your needs to our Father God. We love you and desire that you persevere in your fulfilling of God's plan by faith. Psalm 2:8 "Ask of Me and I will give you the nations for your inheritance." Jorge Parrott MorningStar/CMM Missions Director MorningStar Missionaries Face Increasing Persecution by Jorge Parrott We see the great harvest coming as darkness is covering the earth. The glory of the Lord will shine brighter and brighter on us in the days ahead. Many leaders are saying the global body of Christ is entering its finest hour. While many people in the West are facing the most challenging times of their lives, I want to update you that many brothers and sisters in the Lord are serving with MorningStar Missions who are facing death, imprisonment, and the loss of homes and churches, some even becoming refugees.

Covert Missions We have many missionaries who are covert, serving in the Middle East, Africa, and Asia, some of whom have been followed and watched during their weekly ministry activity. We will not reveal their identities.
• One friend serving in Kenya knows of a friend who was helping rescue women in Somalia and was beheaded last July.
• A dear friend serving in Israel was kidnapped near the Sea of Galilee, and while the car traveled at high speed, she jumped out of it and was not seriously injured.
| | India & Pakistan • A pastor in India was evangelizing in the Gujarat state and was threatened with death and stoned, losing his eye. His overseer told him he would not have to go back to that town. The faith-filled pastor said he must go back, even if they killed him. Upon his return, the gang of thugs reminded him of their threats and the brave pastor said even if they killed him, he had to tell them about Jesus’ love. About ninety men gave their lives to Jesus and some are now pastors.

One of our sources we know and trust reports that Nigerian Muslims have declared jihad against Christians in that nation. News reports come in almost every Sunday of burned Christians and burned churches.
• Only two weeks ago, a new church plant in eastern Andhra Pradesh, India was burned by anti-Christian forces. There are many other reports of the dramatic increase in violence against Christians in Africa, the Middle East, India, Nepal, Pakistan, and Asian nations.
