One Christian Fired, Two Arrested

Most countries in the Arabian Peninsula are majority-Muslim with severe restrictions for those who follow Christ, a reality experienced by three Christian men. Born into a Muslim family, Haroun moved to the Arabian Peninsula for employment and came to know Christ. After his conversion, Haroun would regularly read the Bible on his phone during work breaks. One day his Muslim boss saw what he was reading and fired him. He was later fired from another job for attending a church service instead of going to mosque. Haroun is struggling to find another job. In the same country, two Christian men developed a friendship with a young Somali man and began sharing the gospel with him. The Somali man complained to local authorities, and police arrested the two Christians. One was deported, and the other remains in jail.
