Five Christian students were among those killed in a Feb. 26 Boko Haram attack on a boarding school in Yobe state. At least 29 students, all teenage boys, were killed in the overnight attack. Before carrying out the deadly attack, the Islamists rounded up the female students and told them to go home to their families, get married and stop their school studies. They then began hurling explosives and spraying gunfire into the student dorms where students were sleeping. According to VOM contacts, at least 23 homes and other properties were burned during the attack.

May we in America STOP taking our freedom for granted by being afraid of political correctness and by accepting in the name of tolerance the evil that is all around us. May we live our faith and bear the fruit of Christ and be fishers of men.
