My dear brothers and sisters in Christ,

I write to you from Northern Nigeria with a heavy and broken heart. What I am witnessing here can only be described as a slow genocide against Christians.

Our villages are being emptied. Our faithful are killed, our women widowed, our children kidnapped, and our churches burnt. Night after night we bury our own. We live in fear, and it seems there is no hope in sight.

Our leaders look away. The government is helpless. We are abandoned to our fate.

The worst is, I am sick myself and I have no money to go to a good private hospital in the capital city, not even in my town. The government hospital has no electricity and nothing is functioning there. I am praying to God for healing, because there is nowhere else to go.

Please do not forget us. Remember us in your prayers, and let the world know that Christians in Northern Nigeria are dying
