Song: Instrument of Your Peace
This slideshow is to bring awareness of the struggle of our brethren in the state of Orissa, India to the Christian world.
Recently, they have been suffering the horrors of terrible and unjust persecution by Hindu fundamentalists that are determined to annihilate the Christian faith from their country. For the sake of younger viewers, we have omitted some of the more graphic and gory
pictures & scenes that illustrate the reality of their suffering.
We hope this will motivate you to pray for the persecuted church in Orissa and that you will appreciate and take advantage of the religious freedom you have.
