Terrorist attack on Murree Christian School

Sunday 11 August, 2002 · Posted by Philip Bassett

As you have no doubt heard Murree Christian School in Pakistan, where our link missionaries, the Newmarch family are serving, was subject to a terrorist attack earlier this week. 6 locals were killed, and several injured, but thank God the children and the teaching staff were kept safe. We have been receiving frequent e—mails from David and Georgina and CMS that have kept us informed and allowed us to pray.

The school and the staff face many grave decisions at this time and covet our prayers. An appeal to help the families of those killed has also been launched. If you wish to support the appeal please place your donation in the offertory, suitably marked and we will ensure it is forwarded. Please keep praying for the school.

I have included an e-mail received Friday that gives the latest information.
