Dr. Ngoumape’s Son Beaten, Hospitalized
Posted by Terry White on September 25, 2006
Dr. François Ngoumape (pictured), one of the leading educators, church leaders, and elders in the Grace Brethren Church in the Central African Republic, sent this urgent prayer request this morning:
Warmest greeting from Bata. We were in Bangui to welcome our guests the Mensingers, Volovskis, and Lois Wilson who come for the seminary anniversary next Monday. Praise the Lord they arrived safely in Bangui.
Than we headed back yesterday to Bata. We left Bangui and fifteen minutes later I got a phone call letting us know that Wilfried, our son in Morocco, was badly beaten by the police because they went to the Central African embassy to strive to get their scholarship paid, because the government didn’t pay this for six months.
The Central African ambassador ordered the police to dismiss them. Several of them were injured, others were put in jail, and some of them were admitted to the hospital.
Wilfried’s case is very serious. He was unconscious the whole day yesterday, according to the phone call we received.
So please pray for him and for peace in our heart in this hard time. We will let you know how he is doing.
