Middle East: June 15, 2016. (bibles4mideast) Three young missionaries of the “Bibles for Mideast” abducted by Islamic terrorists on Tuesday, 14 Jun, 2016 in the Middle East. Two of them are pastors named Stephan (32 years old) and Samuel (29 years old) and one is an evangelist named James (30 years old). These missionaries were admitted in the hospital because of a brutal attack by a group of Islamic extremists on 12th evening. Some people came by a bus stopped at them and saved them from the extremists and admitted into the hospital. Evangelist James was in a critical condition. All three were converted from Islam to Christianity. Missionaries were going back home after a prayer service. On the way they met somebody on the road and talking him about Jesus Christ under a street light by holding Bibles and explaining with its verses. At once the extremists jumped out on the missionaries from a dark corner and brutally beaten them with iron pipes. The attackers were screaming “Allahu Akbar,” and telling themselves “kill them…. kill them”, when they were beating the missionaries. They tear and thrown out the Bibles. Suddenly few people came by a bus stopped at them and fought with the attackers. And the attackers have to run away from the spot. Bus travelers themselves took the pastors and evangelist and admitted them into the hospital. Just last Friday (on 10th Jun) twelve believers from five Arab families were baptized in this place. On Sunday they were having worship service and the Lord’s Supper. Extremists attacked them when they return back home after the Lord’s Supper. Maybe they were provoked because of the Arab’s baptism. When the missionaries were in the hospital they had a feeling that somebody watching them with a cruel intention. So they asked the doctors to discharge them from the hospital. After the discharge they hired a fake taxi to reach home. (Fake taxi means, vehicles servicing without taxi permit and there are many fake taxis over here). Before entering the taxi they informed Pastor Paul, the Director of the Bibles for Mideast that they would reach home within 45 minutes. Also they informed there are two other fellow passengers sitting in the taxi (It is common that unknown passengers also will be travelling at the same taxi and they will get down at their own places after paying their charges). Missionaries did not reach the home. They were kidnapped on the way. Driver and the fellow men were terrorists and they abducted them. All three are family people.
