John, Just hours before Sunday service, Syrian Pastor Mezher of Good Shepherd Evangelical Church, and 20 members of his family – including children and the elderly – were slaughtered by radical Islamists. Now we face an urgent MIDNIGHT deadline as we fight to save Christians like Pastor Mezher from massacre. They were among 180 civilians who were "summarily executed." Pastor Mezher and his family were converts to Christianity, respected and faithful Christians in the community for years – they lived in peace until radical Islam entered the picture. Church leaders in the region are pleading for intervention to save "the lives of young and old" and for people to "pray that this cry reaches the whole world." We're working with pastors on the ground. And in just days, we're heading back to the U.N. in Geneva to advocate for dying Christians. Our oral intervention will hold offending countries accountable and make them answer for not protecting their Christian populations. These latest massacres come just weeks after a Syrian church bombing that left at least 25 Christians dead and more than 50 traumatically injured. We MUST act with the urgency they deserve. God has called us to defend Christians, whether they are on death row or facing massacre. But this vital work requires significant resources. Have your Tax-Deductible gift doubled by MIDNIGHT TONIGHT through our Victory Drive: $20 becomes $40; $40 becomes $80. Have Your Gift DOUBLED To Defend Dying Christians. Earlier this year, after ISIS killed hundreds, Syrian pastors were threatened: "Once we have greater control, you will be next." As these Islamic radicals carry out their threats, our Christian brothers and sisters urgently need us. Sign Petition: Defend Christians Facing Atrocities.
