Stand with them — and for them

Islamist terrorists “killed 23 people, injured 10, kidnapped five, and set ablaze 28 houses across multiple villages in Nigeria” last week, reports International Christian Concern.

 “According to residents from the village who confirmed the attack, ‘The attackers were on many motorcycles, shouting “Allah Akbar” [God is Greatest].’ The villagers were said to be sleeping when the terrorists launched the attack in the early morning hours.

“Police came seven hours after the attack to take photos and ask questions,” said Audu Tanko from Kajuru county. “There is tension now in my village. We are killed because of our faith in Jesus.”

With 13 Christians killed for their faith on average every day in Nigeria, we must come to their aid in the name of Jesus.

Give generously to Liberty Relief International and you will be a lifeline to fellow Christ-followers who need immediate physical aid, food, water, shelter, and safety.

You will enable LRI’s local partners — who minister to families and communities ravaged by violence — to offer trauma counseling and emotional support.

Your generosity also provides for the distribution of Bibles, discipleship materials, and spiritual resources to those in need.

Nigeria is one of the most hostile places on earth for Christians. Our brothers and sisters there and in other regions need our immediate help.

I cannot thank you enough for what you mean to the persecuted worldwide. I am grateful you stand with them — and for them.
