A huge mob of extremists surrounded Pastor Jai’s house church in Bichpari Haryana state before dragging him and house owner, Naresh, outside and attacking them.
Pastor Jai was unable to walk after extremists took turns to beat him.
Hours after the attack, Pastor Jai was handed over to the authorities and formally charged with offering people money to convert, along with several other Christians.
Naresh was evicted from his business premises and socially ostracised. According to local Christians, extremist attacks in this part of Haryana are happening in response to church growth.
Pray for healing and justice for Pastor Jai, Naresh and the Christians who were falsely accused.
Pray that believers will not cower in fear but will remain resolute in their love for the Lord and in their labour for the Kingdom of God.
Pray also that God will provide for all the needs of Pastor Jai and his congregation and the needs of the Church.
Please share this prayer request.
