May the Lord Jesus Christ shower upon you Blessings and peace.

I want to request you that we need your prayers, help for victims of Gojra. I want to share with you that on Evening of 30^th July 2009 at 7:30 PM, Muslim community of Gojra get to gather and attack on the small Christians community of the small village Chack no 362 Korean, Gojra, They burnt many houses and it was very terrible situation for them. Then second attack by the Muslim was on the 1^st August 2009 at 2:30 PM on the Christian colony Gojra. In this Colony they also burnt all houses and Rob all the things of the poor Christian people.

The lam blame of the Muslims that Christian community has burnt the papers of Holy Quran among the marriage ceremony. They have blasphemy against Holy Quran. It was false propaganda against Christians. Then Muslim community calls the near town people and requests them that come together in the name of Allah and Holy Mohammad and destroy Christian community and their houses. They made plan to demolish the churches and burned the houses of the Christians community. They made announcement that all Christians may come out from their houses and save yourself otherwise we will kill you and burnt you with your houses as well. So poor people left their houses as soon as and then Muslims people rob the costly things from their houses and then took all the pet animals and then they burnt houses. In this situation the 9 people were killed. There were burnt 2 small kids namely Umia d/o Mr. Almas Masih age 8 years old, Mousa s/o Almas Masih age 10 years, two young women namely Asifan and Asiaya were burnt in house. Then one old woman namely Pervain w/o Victor Masih was burnt in the personal room, they just put the fir and close the door. Then three old men Hameed Masih (he was shouted by fire), Sharif Masih (and Raiz Masih. One young man was burnt namely Ikhlas s/o Hameed Masih. In the terrible incident 19 people were injured badly. In the village ch. 362, more then 70 houses were burnt totally and in the Christian colony more then 85 houses were burnt totally.

The government is also helpless front of furious procession of extremists. The police are also helpless and our poor community is under the sun and praying.We need your prayers help.

Hope for well understands and prompt response. Yours Truly,
