World Events Touch Our Church Members

Note: I am posting an email received from our National Overseer of Pakistan. I hope that you will understand that I am not posting his name or contact information for security reasons. Please join me in prayer for our Bishop there:

Dear Brothers and sisters

Greetings to you in the highest name of Jesus Christ. Hope you are informed of the suddenly death of X
Priminister of Pakistan Benazir Bhutto. Pakistan's Benazir Bhutto Killed. The attacker struck just minutes after Bhutto addressed thousands of supporters in the garrison city of Rawalpindi, 8 miles south of Islamabad. She was shot in the neck and chest by the attacker, who then blew himself up. After attack Bhutto was rushed to the hospital and taken into emergency surgery. She died about an hour after the attack.

Many chanted slogans against Musharraf, accusing him of complicity in her killing. As news of her death spread, angry supporters took to the streets.

In Karachi, shop owners quickly closed their businesses as protesters set tires on fire on the roads, torched several vehicles and burned a gas station, said Fayyaz Leghri, a local police official. Gunmen shot and wounded two police officers, he said.

In Rawalpindi, the site of the attack, Bhutto's supporters burned election posters from the ruling party and attacked police, who fled from the scene. Violence also broke out in Lahore, Multan, Peshawar and many other parts of Pakistan, where Bhutto's supporters set fire to a bus, pelted stones at shops and blocked city roads. Suddenly every thing, every person and every task of our country is effected. Some people say this has been done by the Christian countries and their people.

We need your prayers and stand in prayer with for our country and for Christian’s safety. For this please check this website. And Pray for us. http://www.aaj.tv/

Your Brother in Christ

Death Notice - Clara McMahan

I AM SHARING A NOTICE I JUST RECEIVED FROM PASTOR TERRY BARNWELL (KNOXVILLE- ARROWHEAD) Hi Brother; I pray your day is going along well. I wanted to let you know of the passing of Sister Clara McMahan this morning. Her husband Claude has served as deacon for over 52 years at the Arrowhead church. This wonderful lady has touched thousands of lives across Tennessee. She is the sister of Charlie Weaver. The day you and Sister McKinley were with us on the Home Coming Sunday if you remember the youth presented this couple with a light house they had built for them. Sister Clara will be greatly missed greatly. I will let you know the arrangements when I get them if you wished to attend the services. If your schedule will not permit I understand, but I just wanted you to know. Love you and have a blessed day; Bro. Terry
