In the same week, jihadists attacked a Nigerian village and murdered two teenage Christian girls.
This madness has to end. But the Nigerian government continues to do nothing. If no one intervenes, the outlook for Christians in Nigeria - and honestly across Africa - looks bleak.
We pray for murdered Pastor Lawan's family and for Leah Sharibu, the Christian teenager who remains a prisoner of Boko Haram because she won't convert to Islam.
But along with prayer, we must act. Our legal teams have stood before the U.N. many times. In 3 days, we are submitting a written submission at the U.N. Human Rights Council, urging action from world leaders to stop this violence and hold the extremist perpetrators accountable so that this never happens again.
Every Christian deserves to worship and live in peace, without fear of violence. Stand with us, as we stand for them.
Sign Our Petition: Protect Nigeria's Christians from Persecution.
