Graham Staines and his two sons were martyred ten years ago, tomorrow. Persecution of Christians in the Indian state of Orissa seems to have gotten worse since then. Pray for India. Pray for the persecuted church.
His wife, commenting on the current persecution and martyrdom of some believers says:
"These sisters of mine in Kandhamal who have sacrificed their husbands
for the sake of Christ - I tell them be strong, stay strong, and Christ will be
your support, your companion, your guide and your strength. When God is working with us, nothing can be against us. I am in prayerful solidarity with them, I share their sufferings and I want to encourage them with hope. It is painful and sad but importantly - it is not how we live, but what matters is ‘whether we are in the will of God’. Support them with your solidarity and prayers."
