Indonesia (MNN) ― IN Network urges prayer for a ministry collaborater in Indonesia.   

The Arastamar Evangelical School of Theology (SETIA) students face eviction from the building where they have been housed since the attack on the SETIA campus a year ago.  

It came at a critical time in the runup to a national examination.

City officials want to relocate around a thousand students to the Cibubur camp site this month. Hundreds of students protested and demanded a decent temporary place to stay as the school builds a new campus.

According to a SETIA campus spokesman, this group of students and faculty members may seek political asylum in other countries if they are no longer allowed to live and pursue their studies in their own country.

Pray for wisdom for the leadership as they seek a peaceful resolution.
