Hello,
John and Doves,
Sister
Donna Danna, I realize that this was an unprovoked attack. Our thoughts
and prayers
are
with our brethren in Ethiopia.
And yet, this is our time to
shine. May God give each one of us the grace to say, in
time,
"Father, forgive them, for they know not what they
do." [Luke 23:34]
I am sure that probably all of the
attackers have no clue that they are actually attacking
the
beloved of the True and Living God. Let us therefore forgive, as God gives
us the
grace
to love our enemies.
In
HaShem,
Mike
C.

"50
Christian churches burned by rampaging Muslims in Ethiopia"
(Please pray for our persecuted Christian brothers and
sisters in Ethiopia.)
50 Christian churches burned by rampaging Muslims
More than 50 churches, nearly 30 houses, a school and an orphanage along
with other Christian-owned buildings have been destroyed by rampaging Muslims
in Ethiopia's Jamma region, according to reports from the Christian news
service Compass Direct and others.
"The Muslims desecrated a Quran and put it in a church compound and then
accused Christians of desecrating a Quran, then started attacking," Racho
said. "Since this happened, since it happened in a part of Ethiopia where
Muslims have the majority, the police failed to protect the Christians.
"So the Muslim mobs were able to carry out attacks in many cities," he
said.
"This is unprecedented in Ethiopia because Ethiopia is considered to be a
Christian majority country. There have been attacks against Christians in the
past but it's unprecedented because of the number of churches," Racho
explained.
