Five Christians have been executed by an Islamist group after they were kidnapped on Christmas Eve from their village in Nigeria's northeastern Adamawa state. The Islamic State West Africa (ISWAP), a break-away faction of Boko Haram, attacked the town of Garkida on Christmas Eve, looting and setting properties on fire. Amidst the attack, they abducted five Christian men. Days later, a video posted by the Islamic State's media channel Amaq reportedly shows the victims being shot dead from behind after they each mention their name and say they are Christians. A community leader confirmed to Open Doors the five men were members of the church that only a few days earlier had celebrated Christmas together. During the attack at least two more people, including a 5-year old, were killed while many others fled and spent the night in the mountains. The largest church denomination in the region, the EYN, on its Facebook page posted photos of people returning to their homes the next day. PRAY
 Pray for peace in the West African country of Cameroon. Boko Haram militants have killed 14 people in an overnight attack in the town of Mozogo, in Cameroon's Far North region. The jihadist group has in recent days staged several attacks in the same region despite the government's claims of success against them. According to the mayor of Mozogo, Boukar Medjewe, local residents started fleeing to a nearby forest as soon as they heard that the attackers were approaching the town. A suicide bomber who hid among the fleeing civilians detonated explosives killing 11 people on the spot, before gunmen shot dead three others. Cameroon is also dealing with conflict between the English-speaking and French-speaking regions. Militias have been fighting for secession since 2017.

MOMENT IN MISSIONS The Fulani (also known as Fulbe in Fulfulde or les Peuls in French) are among the most widely dispersed and culturally diverse peoples in Africa. They form the largest pastoral nomadic group in the world. The nomadic Fulani are full-time cattle keepers who move about with their cattle for much of the year. In contrast, settled Fulani live permanently in villages and cities, and yet many still have a nomadic mindset and consider themselves to be nomadic. Virtually 100% of Fulani are Muslim. Pray for our international workers currently serving among the Fulani, sharing the Gospel through storytelling, digging wells, and providing education and work experience for young girls, men and women alike. Pray for the team in Senegal
