In October 2015, Neelam’s father, Pastor Chamu Hassa Purty, was shot and killed at his home in Sandih village, Jharkhand, after he had prayed for a sick boy and helped him to get to hospital.
Five years later, 2 men entered Neelam’s home knowing it was the home of the slain Pastor Chamu. The men shouted, “the pastor was killed but you did not learn a lesson and have continued assembling in large numbers for Christian prayers.”
The men identified Neelam, accused her of being a spy and shot at her before fleeing. The bullet pierced Neelam’s thumb and entered her thigh which required hospitalisation and surgery.
Pray for Neelam’s full recovery from her physical wounds as well as from the trauma of the incident that would have brought up painful memories of losing her father.
Pray that Neelam and her family will experience the peace of God that transcends all understanding and divine protection over their lives. Pray that those responsible for both shootings will be brought to justice and genuine repentance.
Please share this prayer request.
