Mass burial

It's physically dangerous to be Christian in parts of the world. Nigeria is one of those places where disaster keeps happening. At least 60 were killed two days ago. 

A local pastor says, "‘Many of these attacks result in mass burials [photo]. The sight of numerous corpses and the frequent need to conduct mass burials is something no minister wishes to experience, yet it has become our reality. Daily kidnappings, molestation and rape of Christian women, particularly in rural villages across north-central Nigeria . . [are] disturbingly common.’

Another leader, eyewitness of another recent attack, adds: "What we are experiencing in Bokkos is so devastating . .

"They burned down the church, they burned down houses. They killed pastors, they killed people, they killed even women and children. I saw the corpses and I shed tears."
