Story number 3 for 19 Jul 2000

New Christians in Nagaland, India are standing up for the faith, despite incredible persecution. An indigenous evangelist with Gospel Revival Ministries visited some 48 converts recently. He says one month after they came to Christ, Buddhist Priests assembled the whole community. That’s when community leaders publicly beat these new Christians and drove them out of their village. Despite their exile, these new believers are growing in their faith.
