Evangelist beaten up in Hubli, Karnataka A mob of Hindu extremists allegedly from the Bajrang Dal attacked an evangelist including three women on May 18 in Hubli, Karnataka. Our correspondent Rev Noel Kotian reported that at about 6:30 p.m. Evg. Edward Bellary and three women from Mayer Memorial Church (MMC) were invited by one family to pray for a sick lady when the extremists barged in and accused them of forceful conversion and of deceiving the family with false hopes and beat up the evangelist. Later, one believer Elish Mulur came to rescue Bellary from the angry mob. However, when he reached the spot, the extremists badly beat him up. He sustained injuries and his left ear- drum was damaged, reported Dr. Daniel, church member of MMC. The extremists dragged Bellary to the police station and pressured the police to arrest him. He was detained in the police station for about 8 hours but he was later released without charges. |

Verse of the Day
Psalm 18:1-2“[The LORD Praised for Giving Deliverance.] For the choir director. A Psalm of David the servant of the LORD, who spoke to the LORD the words of this song in the day that the LORD delivered him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul. And he said, “I love You, O LORD, my strength.” The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, My God, my rock, in whom I take refuge; My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.”
