In July 2008 a severe persecution of Christians broke out in the Indian state of Orissa. A 22 year old nun was burnt to death when angry mobs burnt down an orphanage in Khuntpali village in Barhgarh district, another nun was gang raped in Kandhamal, mobs attacked churches, torched vehicles, houses of Christians destroyed, and Fr. Thomas Chellen, director of the pastoral center that was destroyed with a bomb, had a narrow escape after a Hindu mob nearly set him on fire. The end result saw more than 500 Christians murdered, and thousands of others injured and homeless after their houses were reduced to ashes. Recently a strange and dramatic event took place in Orissa, which has many people talking and wondering.

In recent months, herds of wild elephants have begun to storm villages that are home to some of the worst persecutors of Christians during the troubles. In one village, where in August a year ago the Christians had to run for their lives while their homes were being destroyed by rioters, a herd of elephants emerged from the surrounding jungle exactly one year later, in July 2009, at the same time of the day of the attack.

^ News told to me by relatives from India say that Orissa has also been hit by storms which destroyed or filled Hindu temples with muck and sewage, leaving Christian Churches untouched.

Orissa, if anyone remembers was also where the famous incident took place where Hindu fundamentalists burnt alive a father raham Staines, and his two boys who were foreign missionaries in their van. On the anniversary of the incident, Orissa was hit by storms so severe many Hindus took it to be the vengence of the Christian God against them.
