A Nalu friend, Suleman, said his nephew had been knifed during an argument over some money he was owed. He asked Hans to drive the young boy, El Hai, to the clinic for medical attention.

Even though it was now extremely late, Hans left for ambulance duty. He drove El Hai to the clinic where his arm was stitched up.

When Hans and his patient returned to the village they discussed what should happen to the man who stabbed El Hai. Many felt Sana should go straight to jail but others felt that the villagers should handle it themselves. Sana, realizing that he was in big trouble, ran and hid. He was found the next morning and returned to his uncle for punishment.

"The sad thing" wrote Marion, "was that the young man who knifed El Hai was one of the young men who has heard much of God's Word."

Pray that Sana and other Nalus who are hearing God's Word will understand and trust Christ as their Savior.

Monday's demonstration was organized by those in opposition to the current government. Government security forces responded with force. The actual number of deaths and injuries is unknown, with reports varying.

However, the unrest has been limited to Conakry, and has not at this time spread to any of the more remote areas or other cities where most NTM missionaries in Guinea are ministering. And since Monday, Conakry has been calm.

All members of NTM in Conakry are safe and well. Many foreign embassies have encouraged their citizens to remain at home until the situation returns to normal, and NTM personnel are following that advice. In other places, ministries are continuing as normal.

Please pray for peace in Guinea, for the sake of Guinea's people and so the Gospel can go forward unhindered.
