This week's persecuted church: India

The attack on three men on June 9th, were in response to an open air Gospel meeting where a pastor was brought in to preach the message.  It seems that the 40 Hindu extremists attacked the believers in hopes of stopping these types of meetings from continuing.  While the believers were beaten, "rioters started breaking into the houses of Christians, includring these three.  The houses were looted, cattle were robbed and household things were stolen."  The men were brought to a hospital, seriously wounded, while other Christians fled to various villages, some even hiding in the jungle.

Thought of the Day:  Spiderman
Song of the Day:  Fun-We Are Young
