Persecution News provides a valuable service all-year long by highlighting the targeting of Christians around the globe. There’s no rest during the Christmas season. Here’s a round-up from the news service’s Twitter feed. Be sure to follow them for news that doesn’t make it onto the front pages of most “mainstream” newspapers — and pray for those victimized for standing up for their faith:
