Pro-democracy demonstrators looted and burned many businesses and buildings in the Tongan capital city, Nuku'alofa, Nov. 16.

Heamasi Ta'ufo'ou, the UCG pastor in Tonga, wrote Nov. 21, "Thanks for your prayers for us. All the brethren are well and safe."

The Tongan brethren would appreciate your prayers for their ongoing safety and also the stabilization of their country after this event.
