5 Skiers Killed in Swiss Alps
The search is ongoing for a missing sixth skier after five other skiers have been found dead in the Swiss Alps. The group of skiers was known to have started from Zermatt, home of the Matterhorn mountain. They were taking a ski tour towards the Swiss-Italian border. Bad weather with high winds has greatly hindered the search efforts. Pray for the families of the deceased. Pray for the safety of the missing and the rescue workers.
4 Killed by Lightning in Mozambique
At least four people are dead, and three others injured, after being struck by lightning in Mogincual, Mozambique. The lightning strike came as the nation braced for Storm Filipo, which landed as a severe tropical storm before going back out to sea. The storm brought heavy rainfall and there is concern of mudslides. Pray for the families of the deceased. Pray for healing for the injured. Pray for all affected and for safety.
Gangs Seizing Control of Port-au-Prince, Haiti
Shortly after a coordinated effort by gangs resulting in a massive prison break, gangs continue to attack and seize control of areas of Port-au-Prince, the capital of Haiti. Most recently, the plane carrying Prime Minister Ariel Henry was denied permission to land, stranding him in Puerto Rico. The United States government and many European nations have evacuated. Pray for the safety of all affected and those who call the city home.
Ramadan Brings Concerns in Jerusalem
Ramadan begins for many Palestinians on Monday, March 11, 2024. Ramadan is a holy month in the Islamic year, with many traveling to Jerusalem to celebrate. Due to the recent conflict between Israel and Palestine, there are concerns about violence in Jerusalem, which is a holy site for both Christians and Muslims. Pray for peace. Pray for all affected. Pray for a peaceful resolution.
Independence Threatened in Hong Kong
A new law would severely limit independence and freedom in Hong Kong and would bring in more in line with the laws of mainland China. The law specifically targets “ideas of an independent Hong Kong.” Since the pro-democracy rallies in 2019, many pro-democracy supporters have been charged, arrested, and are now in jail. The law is expected to pass. Pray for the people of Hong Kong.
France Prepares for 2024 Summer Olympics and Paralympics
One day ahead of schedule, France unveiled the athletes’ village for the 2024 Summer Olympics and Paralympics. It was also revealed that the village will not use air conditioning but instead use a “natural geothermal cooling system” which uses natural cool water from underground to cool the apartments. Several nations have already expressed their unhappiness with the decision, concerned for the safety of their athletes during the hot summer months that killed thousands in 2023. Pray for the safety of all participants and guests. Pray for safe travels in the upcoming months.
