Pastor Killed While Returning Home
Nigeria
On Saturday, Sep. 11, Islamists ambushed and killed a pastor on the road in Kaduna State, Nigeria. The pastor had visited his son at the local university and was traveling home when the attackers confronted him and killed him. “They butchered my husband and took his motorbike,” his wife said. The Islamists then used the motorbike to travel into the pastor’s community, where they attacked and killed others. The pastor leaves behind his wife and their five sons. Pray for their community as they recover from the attack. Pray for his family as they grieve, and pray that those who also lost loved ones will be comforted.
