Prominent Christian leader Rev. Johnnie Moore – who is also a member of The Fellowship’s Board of Directors – speaks out against the recent violence in Syria that caused the death of more than 1,000 people, including hundreds of Christians:

Moore said, “It is a clear demonstration that this new government has failed at the first task of any government, which is to protect its citizens.”

He said that foreign fighters acting either at the direction of the Syrian government or embedded within it or behaving in an out-of-control way “indiscriminately and grotesquely killed countless civilians, including a number of Christians, that we personally verified were killed. And the numbers are rising.”

Moore said, “The new government in Syria may not be ISIS, but they are ‘Islamists.’” Al-Sharaa was also once a member of the Islamist State terrorist movement.

Please join us in urgent prayer for Christians in Syria, and anywhere that they face persecution.
