Christians in Egypt are being killed and kidnapped.

(Egypt)—As pro-Morsi protesters and the Muslim Brotherhood have escalated attacks against Egyptian Security Forces this week, major violence has also been unleashed against Christians in the country.

According to a CBN News report, the “most recent count is over 50” churches and Christian institutions that have been attacked or destroyed.

USA Today reports: “On Wednesday, as the police in Cairo assaulted two protest camps of the Muslim Brotherhood's, Morsi supporters directed their anger at Christians.”

The CBN report stated that “Brotherhood members in Cairo have been overheard saying, ‘If you find a Christian, kill him!’"

Meanwhile, a more conservative faction—the Islamist Salafis—are condemning the attacks.

Please continue to pray for our brothers and sisters-in-Christ in Egypt.
