Story number 2 for 15 Nov 2001

(Iraq)–Next, Christians in Iraq are facing increasing persecution in the wake of the terror attacks and U-S bombing of Afghanistan. According to the Barnabus Fund, the situation has become so dangerous that Christians are now too afraid to wear their crosses in public. There are also reports that Christians are being discriminated against in the distribution of food rations. Many are being told to get their food from the Americans. Pray that their faith will be strong during this time of uncertainty.
