On Christmas, Christians in #Syria are reading the news about today's bombings of churches in #Iraq & hoping their future won't be the same.

Christmas has long been a day of terror for persecuted Christians in Iraq. Today was no different. Close to 40 innocent worshipers reportedly died in two separate attacks in Baghdad today at a church and nearby marketplace.

Reminder: American Christian Pastor Saeed remains imprisoned in Iran. This is his second year behind bars because of his faith.
Pray today for Pastor Saeed Abedini, a U.S. citizen, will spend his second Christmas persecuted in Iranian prison.http://t.co/yUU9xlwrfB
