This morning former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe was shot while giving a speech at a rally in the city of Nara. He was transported to hospital, where at 17:03h his death was confirmed.
Please pray for the people of Japan, to whom the events of today are a big shock. One newscaster phrased it like that “… that something like that would happen in our time today…!” We pray that people in Japan may find hope and peace in Jesus Christ.
