More Persecutions in India (Oct 28, 08)
I have found out more news from India, via Persecution.org. Kandhamal, in Orissa has been burning since September. Fifty villages have been gutted. Your prayers are needed and at this time international help is needed. The problem is that India is a Federation style country and unless the individual states request help, the other states do not intervene.
Help must come from outside organizations or through international appeal. Orissa hasn’t the best representation of freedom of religion and the state is slow to act. To read more of the conflicts between Christians, Hindus and Muslims, go to Persecutions.org or the Voice of the Martyrs.
The stories told there will break you hearts. Please keep India on your prayer lists and ask God to restore peace and reason to the area. Also, ask your government to appeal to order and send help, resources and manpower to rebuild these villages and churches. India is giving just a few dollars to rebuild and it is not anywhere enough to do much good.
