A Pakistani Christian man was killed recently when four heavily armed suicide bombers attacked a small Christian colony in Peshawar.

Five others were wounded while defending the 25 to 30 Christian families who live in the colony. All four attackers were killed. Please pray for Samuel Masih’s wife and five children. Pray also for the remaining Christians, many of whom fear more attacks by Islamic extremists.
