Some Christians recently faced an outraged Muslim mob in Eastern Ethiopia. Jonathan Racho, with International Christian Concern, says it was a close call. "Two Christians who converted from Islam were going to a church meeting when they were confronted by nine extremist Muslims, and the Muslims were yelling anti-Christian slogans," Racho explains. The group of attackers then started hurling rocks at the Christians. "One of the Christians was hit by eight stones and suffered a severe concussion and injuries on his torso," Racho adds. The second Christian was able to escape injury by fleeing from the scene. He called police, but they never arrived to deal with the attack.   In the same town, the Ethiopian Full Gospel Church was bombed a year ago. None of the 500 people inside was injured.
