Protests in Saudi Arabia

We are beginning to get some information about protests in Saudi Arabia, specifically in Awamiyah or Qatif. We have also heard that two letters were sent to King Abdullah. One of the letters was sent from people who have influence with big business men asking them to change the system to a republic. The chances of these people being arrested are very high. The other letter was sent by university students asking for demands such as more freedom and to stop discrimination. Both letters were hand delivered to King Abdullah.
Pray that as the king reads both of these letters, his heart will be softened toward the people in his country. Pray for the youth that are the ones leading these protests. Pray that they will channel their energy toward Jesus rather than violence.
