First, here is a video made by the Episcopal Church about the situation in Pakistan.
Second, know that 2×2 has already sent some monetary relief. 2×2 readers in Michigan have responded to our request for help. Boxes of winter clothing and blankets are shipping.
The bombing of a church filled with 250 worshipers left more than 80 dead and 150 wounded. A second bombing, a week later, killed another 40 and added to the injured list. This has created warlike conditions for the Christian community, leaving many orphans and seriously injured.
2×2 has corresponded with the Pakistani church for nearly two years. Our friendship has provided a conduit for helping.
There has been little mention in the Church of this horrific event. It has the makings of a new Holocaust, especially if the western Church does not respond.
Imagine it happening here.
Failure to respond now, makes it likely . . . someday.
This is one of the many situations where offering to pray just isn’t enough.
If you’d like to help but don’t know how, please contact us. We can put you in touch with Pakistani church leaders.
