Weekly Watch Focus: India
FRIDAY, May 30, 2014, We pray for Narendra Modi who has just been sworn in as the new Prime Minister of India.

It has a vast trading partnership with Israel, which benefits both nations. It has an increasing trading relationship with the U.S. Pray for Mr. Modi and for peace and prosperity for India.

Pray also for the preservation of freedom under this new government, including the freedom of religion. May India continue its friendship and partnership with Israel and the U.S.
