Syria and Turkey: earthquake aftermath

9 February 2023

Please pray for the people of Syria and Turkey, who suffered an earthquake on Monday. Close to 16,000 people have died as a result of the earthquake and many are still missing. Pray for stamina for the rescuers who are still pulling people out of the rubble, for God to guide them as they look for people and to amplify the voices of those who are trapped and calling out to rescuers. Pray for the many who are suddenly homeless and without food, water and medication. Pray for more Turkey–Syria border crossings to open up to enable the delivery of supplies and pray for aid workers who are doing their best to meet as many needs as possible.
