Direct Scripture for praying for the lost salvation
C W cites I Timothy 2 1 4 urging prayers for all people since God wills salvation for all. He notes John 17 9 shows Jesus praying for his own, not the world, yet argues intercession for sinners is our duty and laments how little prayer is offered despite abundant promises. May God teach us to pray.

Positive Action Ends Hong Kong Refugee Surge
Hong Kong reports a halt to the mass border exodus of Chinese refugees with authorities stating border conditions are returning to normal. British forces have withdrawn from patrols and a detention camp was closed, signaling a possible end to the 60,000 refugees surge since May 1. The drop to under 2,000 crossings in the past 24 hours contrasted with earlier daily flows of 4,000 to 5,000. The cause remains unclear though silence from border areas and reduced loudspeaker activity suggest pressure from Peiping or diplomatic protests. Washington’s stance on admitting thousands of Chinese to the United States provides little relief to Hong Kong’s crowded situation.
