1,513 people died on April 14th, 1912, in the North Atlantic. They died when what is considered one of the world's greatest maritime disaster in history happened. They died when the Titanic sank.
Now imagine 53 Titanics.
Every 24 hours, 80,000 people die in India alone without hearing even the name of Jesus.
Eighty-thousand people.
I can't even imagine that many people. The Titanic times fifty-three, and none of them know Jesus! Is there something terribly wrong here?
Dalits – Untouchables
Every hour, two Dalits are assaulted, three Dalit women are raped, two Dalits are murdered and two Dalit homes are burned.
That means that every day, 48 Dalits are assaulted, 72 Dalit women are raped, 48 Dalits are murdered, and 48 Dalit homes are burned.

I know I'm being depressing. But Dalits are ignored and mistreated by the entire world. We cannot allow our American shelters to keep us from seeing the truth – and doing something.
yeah, Kacy, you are being depressing.

ReplyDeleteit kinda bugs me when things like Virginia Tech or that one ship that went down recently get SOOOO much publicity... while there's millions dying in Africa from curable disases every day. I mean, I understand, it's closer to home and it scarres us personally, so we pay more attention, but still. Who's going to cry for them?
29,200,000 people in one year.
ReplyDelete29,200,000 people.
that's over 10 percent of America's population.
that's how many people are infected with AIDS currently in Africa, and also how many have died of it in the last 25 years.
that's the entire population of Uganda, and also of Kenya.
that's how many people work in the UK.
that's how many people are forgotten in India.
WE must cry for them. But we must do more than that. We must bring the Lord to them.
I can't wait to start supporting a native missionary! Are we all ready?
