Silent Protests across Spain for those killed in Malatya

"The assassination of 3 Evangelical believers in Turkey on 18th April has deeply touched the Evangelical Christians in Spain who know that during many years and in different countries of the world, Christians suffer persecution, torture, imprisonment or death as a consequence of living and sharing their faith.
The Evangelical believers in Spain have called a meeting in front of the Town Councils in the capital cities of every province and other cities on Sunday 6th May at 9.00pm with the purpose of sending a message of solidarity to our brothers and sisters that live in countries where they are persecuted because of their faith in Jesus Christ. The message is a double message:
1. YOU ARE NOT ALONE! May our brothers and sisters know that we are praying for them and that we remember them in their suffering.
2. JESUS CHRIST LOVES YOU AND HE IS ALSO WITH YOU!
The following message will be written on a banner:
To the persecuted Christians in the world:
JESUS CHRIST LOVES YOU! YOU ARE NOT ALONE!
Spanish Evangelical Christians from (name of city)
In each meeting people will light candles during 30 minutes, in silence. The meeting will finish with people clapping in memory of the Christians who were killed on 18th April. Copies of this press release will also be distributed to inform those who attend.
This meeting is supported by a number of Evangelical organizations such as the Evangelical Council of Catalonia, the Spanish Evangelical Alliance and many other churches that are signing up to participate."
