NIGERIA — Christians Discouraged After Months of Relentless Attacks
Relentless attacks on villages, homes and churches in predominately Christian areas of Nigeria have left thousands displaced.
Front-line workers report that Christians in Plateau State and Southern Kaduna are battling fear, anger, bitterness and unrest after Muslim Fulani herdsman attacked and killed many in these predominantly Christian areas over the last few months. Houses were burned, farmlands destroyed, churches set ablaze and many people injured and killed.
In Miango alone, about 6,000 families were affected. “We are going through dark times,” the front-line worker said. Pray that pastors and church leaders will be a comfort to those suffering from these attacks. Pray that our Nigerian brothers and sisters can show the love of God to the militant Fulani Muslims, and that their persecutors will come to faith in Christ.
Pray that God will put an end to the spread of radical Islam in Nigeria.
