Gospel for Asia: Entire Family Beaten for their Faith


Last night, a family of new believers sat down to eat dinner when a religious fanatic group suddenly entered their home and attacked the father, mother and three children.

One daughter’s hand was broken; their son fell unconscious; and the mother lost her hand, having it cut in two by her assailants.
The father and another daughter were also badly beaten. All five have been admitted to the hospital for treatment.

The persecutors are not finished, however. They are now searching for the family’s pastor, Chaarudatt, at fellowships and prayer meetings. Having heard the group’s plans, Pastor Chaarudatt has left the village.

This community has a well-known reputation for hostility toward believers, and attacks are consistently planned when pastors and missionaries visit.

Please pray for:
* Great healing, peace and faith for this family. Ask God to grant them joy amidst their suffering.
* Safety and wisdom for Pastor Chaarudatt and all other believers in the area.
* The religious fanatics to turn their hearts to Jesus Christ.
