Once again the alter of God is being filled with the blood of His saints. Pray for your brothers & sisters in Nigeria. Pray that this horrid act lights a fire in the church as a whole. Show Christ's bride that we need to become unified. Please use this as an opportunity to pray for their strength and that this can be a witness to the world. We should not be acting out in viloence. Power does nto come from a rifle, but the very hand of God. Our warfare is one of the Spirit, not of the flesh.

Hundreds slaughtered in Nigeria religious violence
By JON GAMBRELL (AP) – 40 minutes ago
DOGO NAHAWA, Nigeria — The killers showed no mercy: They didn't spare women and children, or even a 4-day-old baby, from their machetes. On Monday, women wailed in the streets as a dump truck carried dozens of bodies past burned-out homes toward a mass grave.
Rubber-gloved workers pulled ever-smaller bodies from the dump truck and tossed them into the mass grave. A crowd began singing a hymn with the refrain, "Jesus said I am the way to heaven." As the grave filled, the grieving crowd sang: "Jesus, show me the way."
At least 200 people, most of them Christians, were slaughtered on Sunday, according to residents, aid groups and journalists. The local government gave a figure more than twice that amount, but offered no casualty list or other information to substantiate it
