Correction: The 4 pastors who were killed were not the ones Kevin trained, but we still need to pray for their families. Included in the email were other details of churches being broken into during worship services and the worshippers were beaten and also many false arrests of pastors. Sorry for the misinformation below. Kevin had just told me about it and I hadn't read the actual email yet.
Kevin received an email from our India contact yesterday with very disturbing and heart wrenching news. Several of the church plant pastors who trained with Kevin and his team in October have been burned to death. Please lift up their families and pray that Satan would be bound from trying to stop the spreading of God's word there. I always knew that there was persecution in other parts of the world, but knowing definite acts and having a connection to those believers has made my dedication to praying for them much more serious. I hope this motivates you not only to be on your knees for them, but also to not take our freedom to worship lightly.
