Beth Giles' Friend

Philip Rizk, one of Beth's friends from high school, was abducted by the Egyptian police during a solidarity march in downtown Cairo. Police are not telling his family where he is being held, and are not releasing any information about his well-being. The police have been visiting his home and are trying to arrest his father (this is how things work in Egypt) Please pray for his safety and the safety of his friends and family as well. He is half Egyptian, so as a national is not protected by any laws that would protect a foreigner, and there is no real limit on what they are allowed to do to him. Pray for peace and courage for Phil, and pray that this would speak to the men that are holding him. More information to come.
