| For Christians in India, praying with other believers can incite persecution from Hindu extremists. Pastor Jehovah Das, 65, and Vinod Masih, 42, as well as their wives visited another Christian family’s home to pray for their new baby. A group of radical Hindus discovered the visit and gathered a mob of about 50 people. They broke into the house and dragged the Christians out, slapping, punching and kicking them for several hours. Members of the mob then searched the visitors’ car, pulled out Bibles and Christian literature, and forced the Christians to set fire to the materials. They locked the couples in their vehicle for several more hours and threatened to set it on fire. A Christian attorney who came to their defense was also assaulted and required medical attention. The Christians were deeply traumatized after the attack. Christians in India endure violence because of the activity of their faith. Today, you can stand with persecuted Christians like Jehovah, Vinod and their families by praying and giving to help meet their needs. Your gift can help provide encouragement, Bibles and ministry tools for front-line workers while letting our precious brothers and sisters know they are not alone.
