Rami Ayyad (Gaza) stabbed to death
Rami Ayyad the director of the Protestant Holy Bible Soceity in Gaza was stabbed to death and his body dumped in a field near Gaza city's Zeitoun neighborhood. Since the Hamas takeover in Gaza there have been an increasing number of attacks against Palestinian Christians who comprise a small percentage of the 1.5 million living in the Gaza Strip. Since the outbreak of the Al Aksa intifada seven years ago, thousands of Palestinian Christians have fled abroad. Also Bethlehem is no longer a predominently Christian city anymore. Please pray for our brothers and sisters under Islamic murder-attacks; and pray for the Family of our martyred brother Rami Ayyad. We will never forget you, and we will meet you in the eternal life with Jesus!
