Speak out for Persecuted Christians in Pakistan
During the past year, Pakistani Christians have been the targets of increasing hostility and violence. Here are just a few examples:
On March 27, 2005, armed gunmen attacked a church on the southern outskirts of Lahore, Pakistan, killing one man and injuring seven other people.
On September 10, 2005, a mob on 200 Muslims ransacked the homes of 16 Christians in Lahore, Pakistan.
On October 24, 2005, police did nothing to stop a suspect accused of raping a Christian woman (Ribqa Masih -- pictured at right) from fleeing a Faisalabad, Pakistan, courtroom. See story from Compass Direct.
While Pakistan's constitution guarantees religious freedom, the Christian minority there experiences severe persecution in many forms. The central issue at stake for Christians in Pakistan is a serious lack of protection by the government. Take a stand with persecuted Christians in Pakistan today.
