You've read about Andrew from my posts on Russia. He's the 24 year old who is working with Mercy Ministries in Vladimir, and has committed to 3 years (starting about 9 months ago).
Long story short: Andrew was vacationing with friends a couple weeks ago in Dagestan (where he had first fallen in love with Russia and felt God call him to full time missions there). D'stan is a politically volatile region of Russia where Muslims are very anti-Christian. On his 10th and last day there, Andrew was ordered to leave Russia and not return for five years. They accused him of illegal use of his visa. This accusation has spiraled into an intense situation. Andrew needs a lawyer fast, one who can clearly articulate Russian law without igniting the flames of more religious persection.
Please pray for our precious brother.
