Pray for Christians in Orissa, India

Hi guys!
As you might remember from the video last Sunday (which if you have not watched, it's right over to your right on the screen) there has been an incredible amount of persecution against Christians in Orissa, India. The countless number of stories from Christians that have lost family members, homes, churches, and even lives continues to come in. Hindu extremists will not settle for these Christians living freely, and so far 70,000 Christians have been displaced, or forced to leave their villages in Orissa, and fled to neighboring areas. Horrible things have taken place against our brothers and sisters, and many have been tortured, raped, and killed because of their faith in Jesus. We really need to lift up our family in India at this time, as the violence increases and gets worse as time goes on.
Please pray that:

• The Lord would guide and protect those who are fleeing from Orissa, that families would stay together, and if they have been seperated, the Lord would bring them back together.
• Ask that believers would be strengthened by knowing their struggle isn't against flesh and blood, and they would supernaturally be able to forgive and love those who are persecuting them
• Jesus would be near to the brokenhearted, be a shield about believers, and a spirit of praise would come upon the Christian chuch in Orissa to lift up His name

• Hindu extremists would be put to shame by the humility and love of Christians, and God would soften their hearts so they would come to the saving knowledge of Christ Jesus

Thank you so much for praying friends, our brothers and sisters really need it right now in Orissa. Keep them in your prayers today! Our prayer is very powerful and the Lord is so faithful to answer when we ask! God bless you all :)
