I read the newspapers yesterday and read an article which says that a christian missionary has been arrested as he converted few people in the area......this is not the only news at regular intervals you get to hear about churches being vandalized,missionaries beaten up,priests killed and to top it all the nuns are raped and tortured like anything....
When I hear about such things i really feel sad about it.....there are some local goon political parties like RSS,VHP,Bajrang dal and such parties which just storm into these churches kill people and leave.....the police and the government very well know about it......but no actions are being taken because these parties have a strong support from the opposition parties of our country......some of them just roam Scot free.....
Christians are a minority in my country and hence no matter how much we protest these goons just tend to overpower everything.......I have really no clue when will all this come to an end......missionaries are the ones who always help people in our country, take care of the orphanage, give them food,shelter,education,etc and these people don't give anything and hence they are jealous.....but they don't realize that instead of filling their own pockets if they do something for their country, people will automatically follow them......but they have no heart, sometimes they just love going on a killing spree......
But I feel if government cant do anything then god definitely can......prayer can make things right and teach them a lesson......and hence I need all your prayers and support towards these goons.......let all these killings stop for once and for all.......Please pray for India and its Christians!!!!

A Christian Missionary was arrested in your country? I would say that their must be a minority of Christians as you have said if he has been arrested. He should not be arrested for such a thing as he is not doing anything wrong, he is just teaching people his beliefs and they choose to follow him. The other actions you speak of that are happening in your country are very sad indeed, I will pray for you and may even put your prayer request on a prayer group so as to spread the word and have more pray for your country.

Hello,
Just a friendly reminder, saying just "thank you" is not allowed in mylot! I know sometimes it's hard to think of something to say though, lol. Well I appreciate your comment back to me nonetheless.

Oh my How sad!! Hearing things like this is so unsettling. You and your country are in my thoughts and prayers! Its so sad there is not more protection for these people of god. I don't understand killing at all but to kill innocent people just because of there beliefs is such a travesty! My heart goes out to you and yours!
