I’m still praying for you, just very busy with God’s work and ministry. It’s always good to know that we can pray each other. Our God has all power! There isn’t anything too hard for Him. Because God is all powerful, we must have faith in Him. We will share with you urgent prayer request for Christian Families in Pakistan. It is a big challenge and facing a lot of problems Christian community here in Pakistan and only God will and we appreciate kind and loving people like you full of Gods mercy, kindness and compassion. The report as given below:-
Toba Tek Singh, Pakistan: July 31, 2009. Many Children and Women are
feared burnt to death in 60 to 70 homes of Christians set on fire by
Muslim attackers in village Korian in district Toba Tek, Punjab. The
Faisalabad-Gojra Road is blocked by Muslim mob who are lying on road
to block any help to reach village Korian where homes of Christians
are burning.
We reached after a call from Christians in Gojra who are also hiding
in homes on fear of attack by Muslims. According to Our sources in
Toba Tek Singh, which is also district headquarter, there was a
marriage cermony of a Christian in village Korian on Sunday where
large gathering of Children, Women and Men of relatives were present
for celebration.
The Muslim accused one boy in home of marriage cermony that he have
burnt down the pages of Holy Koran. The elders of Christians and
Muslims in village met to defuse tension on clarification of Christian
youth that he have not burnt pages of Koran. On night of July 30,
2009, at 9:00 PM the Muslims of Village Korian announced on
loudspeakers of mosque to gather and teach lesson to infidel
Christians who are protecting accused of blasphemy on burning holy
pages of Koran. The nearby villages also made same announcements from
mosque and Muslims gathered before homes of Christians in large
numbers.
“Allha Oh Akbar” “Kill infidels” and Muslim mob started setting on
fire homes of Christians. As it was night the Christian Children,
Women and Men with fear locked their doors to hide inside. Many
Children, Women and Men are also burnet to death inside homes. When
news of attack on Christians came to District Police Officer in Toba
Tek, he ordered deployment of police and Fire Brigade but Muslim mob
blocked roads by lying on road.
It is second incident of burning homes of Christian in Punjab province
when Muslim mob on accusation of blasphemy attacked village Bahamin
Wala in district Kasur on July 1, 2009. According to Pakistan
electronic media, Chief Minister of Punjab have ordered DPO Toba Tek
to reach to village Korian and take control of situation but still
Faisalabad-Gojra Road is blocked by Muslims. Please these people need
your prayers. Please ask your friends to pray for them, as there are
alot of loss.They burnt everything in houses. They need our support
and prayers. Please remember them in your prayers and if possible
support them.
Dear Sister Pastor S. E. Coleman! I love you as your Younger in Christ!
