INDIA - Radical Hindus target Christian communities: murder and torture [AN]

[Catholic_Press]

The Global Council of Indian Christians (GCIC), denounces two cases to AsiaNews, which occurred in Orissa and Bihar. In the first, a man was tortured and killed “by mistake”: the attackers wanted to kill his son who had just been baptized. In the second, the extremists assaulted an entire family not even sparing the children: they had met with the pastor of the local church.

It’s very sad, we in Kerala are so blessed to live in the state with the most religious tolerance. I pray for the Christians of Orissa and Bihar to remain strong in faith, I ask any who see this post to do the same. They have suffered for so long under the hands of radical Hindus, remember them my Good Lord.

Our Father, Who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy name;
Thy Kingdom come,
Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
Amen.
May our brothers and sisters stand firm in faith and may those who seek their harm come to know and love the Lord.
Amen.

“And you will be hated by all men because of my name, but he who endures until the end will be saved” (Mark 13:13).

May God protect the Christians of India, and give them peace. And if they should suffer for the name of Christ, may God grant them courage and perseverance.

God bless,
