Turmoil in Pakistan! Pray!

Dear Friend In Christ,

Just this morning I came to know that Muslims attacked Christians again in another village in Sialkot, Pakistan. Below is the report.

Jhethe Key village is in sub-district Sambarial of Sialkot where Christian and Muslim had been living in harmony over a century but today Muslims of same village took out weapons and sticks and attacked on Christians after Muslim cleric made announcement from mosque to kill Christians and burnt their homes.

The Muslim cleric (molana) announced from mosque loudspeaker to gather all Muslims from where procession marched to the homes of Christians. On their way they put Village Church administered by Church of Pakistan on fire.

Meanwhile Christians fled from village to safe their lives and called for police help. The heavy contingent of police have encircled village and no one is allowed to enter in village.

It is feared that situation in this village could be worst than it was in Koriyan and Gojra when Muslims mob burnt 7 Christians alive on blasphemy accusations.

This is the third incident during the last 2 months when Muslims burnt our homes, churches, schools and even burnt alive some of the Christians.

I have questions:
- How do you think we Christians in Pakistan can live in peace and harmony with Muslims who are continuously attacking and burning our homes, killing our people? What is the solution?
- How can you who are in Christian countries help Christians in Pakistan solve this problem?

Need your counsel, please send it. Thanks.
