as an innocent man is punished for exercising his God-given rights,\u201d stated Reverend Rob Schenck, President of the National Clergy Council and Chairman of the Committee on Church and Society for the Evangelical Church Alliance International and the organizer of the national prayer alert for Sidi Mouloud. \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div align=\"JUSTIFY\" lang=\"en-US\"

intended to release Sidi Mouloud, but no one had seen or heard from him. \u00a0Then on October 7 they stated that they had released him, but again no one had seen or heard from him. On October 8, the Polisario representative in Washington told the US State Department that Sidi Mouloud was in Mheriz with his mother, but when she was contacted, she said that he was not with her and she had not heard from him. On October 10, Sidi Moulud\u2019s mother stated that she still has not seen or heard from her son, despite the Poilsario\u2019s claims.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div align=\"JUSTIFY\" lang=\"en-US\" style=\"background:#ffffff;line-height:100%;margin-bottom:0;\"><span style=\"color:#2a2a2a;\">\u00a0\u201c<span><span style=\"font-size:medium;\">As one voice, thousands of Christians cried out to Heaven for Sidi Mouloud and his family. We prayed and continue to pray that God will grant Algerian leaders humble hearts so that they will see the error of their ways, free Sidi Mouloud, and allow him to return safely to his wife and children,\u201d continued Reverend Schenck. \u201cI pray there is some humanity left in anyone in Algeria to make the right decision here.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div align=\"JUSTIFY\" style=\"background:#ffffff;line-height:100%;margin-bottom:0;\"><span style=\"color:#2a2a2a;\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"color:#2a2a2a;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div align=\"JUSTIFY\" style=\"background:#ffffff;line-height:100%;margin-bottom:0;\"><span><span style=\"font-size:small;\"><span style=\"color:#2a2a2a;\"><span><span style=\"font-size:medium;\"><span lang=\"en-US\">2\/<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"color:#2a2a2a;\"><span><span style=\"font-size:medium;\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>Vigil at Algerian Embassy for Safety of Sidi Mouloud<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div align=\"JUSTIFY\" lang=\"en-US\" style=\"background:#ffffff;line-height:100%;margin-bottom:0;\"><\/div>\n<div align=\"JUSTIFY\" lang=\"en-US\" style=\"background:#ffffff;line-height:100%;margin-bottom:0;\"><\/div>\n<div align=\"JUSTIFY\" lang=\"en-US\" style=\"background:#ffffff;line-height:100%;margin-bottom:0;\"><\/div>\n<div align=\"JUSTIFY\" style=\"background:#ffffff;line-height:100%;margin-bottom:0.57cm;\"><span><span style=\"font-size:small;\"><span style=\"color:#2a2a2a;\"><span><span style=\"font-size:medium;\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><u><b>Moroccoboard<\/b><\/u><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"color:#2a2a2a;\"><span><span style=\"font-size:medium;\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><u><b>(<\/b><\/u><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"color:#2a2a2a;\"><span><span style=\"font-size:medium;\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><u><b>01 article)<\/b><\/u><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"color:#2a2a2a;\"><span><span style=\"font-size:medium;\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><u><b>: <\/b><\/u><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div align=\"JUSTIFY\" style=\"background:#ffffff;line-height:100%;margin-bottom:0.57cm;\"><span><span style=\"font-size:small;\"><span style=\"color:navy;\"><span lang=\"zxx\"><u><a href=\"http:\/\/www.moroccoboard.com\/news\/111-author\/4852-vigil-at-algerian-embassy-where-is-western-sahara-dissident-sidi-mouloud-\" target=\"_blank\"><span><span style=\"font-size:medium;\"><span lang=\"en-US\">Protest at Algerian Embassy: Where is Western Sahara Dissident Sidi Mouloud?
