Story number 5 for 9 Oct 2002

(Sri Lanka)–And finally, Buddhist leaders are putting pressure on the government in Sri Lanka to rescind the visas of Christian missionaries in that country. Gospel For Asia reports that these Buddhist leaders are also lobbying to keep foreign funds for Christian work from entering the country. Gospel For Asia has over 100 churches and two Bible schools in Sri Lanka. Pray that God would keep the government from making this anti-Christian policy.
