DATELINE: INDIA
According to a friend who is a missionary to India, Christians in the state of Orissa have experienced intense persecution the last few weeks. At least thirty churches were burned and hundreds of Christians had to flee to the jungle or to refugee camps. The violence was unleashed by Hindu fanatics as the churches were celebrating their Christmas services. Please pray for Indian brothers and sisters in Christ during this difficult time.

Any news article I could find?
 
Ben, I got my information from the Indian Evangelical Team, headed up by P.G. Vargis. He is in the midst of the strife and is actively involved in evangelism and church planting there in India.
