Christian Workers and the Mumbai Attacks
Mission Network News reports on the recent turmoil in Mumbai. It seems that despite the uncertainty, Christian organizations are committed to preaching the gospel as a message of peace:
Gypsy Meadows with Worldwide Christian Schools says their team in the region is safe, but they are rattled. “There’s a palpable and real fear factor in the hearts and minds of the common man in Mumbai, so that rumors and stray and small incidents, practically anything, seems to unsettle the average Mumbai resident.”
Their schools continue to operate, but the tension in the region is likely to push change on the government levels. “They ask for prayer for the city, particularly that the Christians of the city will be able to reach out with the Gospel, which is the message of peace and hope.”
In the face of investigations and terror warnings, Meadows says, “We could pray that Christians can be influential in reforming and reshaping a stronger and healthier government in India. That would do so much for creating a better environment for India as a whole, as a place that we can continue to reach out to.”
