Persecution

Egyptian Coptic priest killed in Cairo attack - AP
AP reports: "Egypt’s Coptic Orthodox Church says a priest has been killed in a knife attack in a poor Cairo district, the latest deadly assault on members of the country’s Christian minority. [...] Attacks on Egypt’s Christians, who account for about 10 percent of the country’s 94 million people, have surged in recent months, with a series of suicide bombings claimed by the Islamic State group killing more than 100 since December."

Comment: Please join me in praying for the persecuted church in Egypt.
