Radical Muslims are demanding
a huge ransom to return Emil's wife.
On Feb. 13, 2025, Islamists abducted a Christian mother of five as she worked in her family’s cropland in Bocaranga, in the northwestern region of the Central African Republic. “That day I didn’t go to the garden. I stayed at home,” said her husband, Emil. “While she was in the garden, she was caught by them and kidnapped.” 


The kidnappers have called Emil and demanded an exorbitant ransom for her return. “I don’t have any solution, so I cry out to the Lord for help in this situation. I cry out to him,” he said. 


On Feb. 27, 2025, Islamists also raided a nearby village, burning 75 homes and killing roughly a dozen people. The Islamist attacks in the area have been ongoing for several years, filling Bocaranga with displaced Christians seeking safety. Local Christian leaders request prayer that God will change the attackers’ hearts and bring peace to their land.


Pray that Emil's wife will be safely returned home.  Ask God to protect her while in captivity and keep her safe from physical, mental or emotional harm.

Pray for the displaced Christians that have lost loved ones and homes during theses raids.

Ask God to change the hearts of the Islamist's so that they would be saved and peace would come to the CAR.
