Christians in Turkey continues to face threats.

Turkey-In the aftermath of the April murders of three Christians in Turkey,the government tried to stem the anti-Christian violence.But,Partners International says the aggression hasn't lessened.Amidst electoral tensions,they report that one month ago,a murder plot was uncovered against an evangelical pastor in a city in the southeast,and the group that planned the plot are being detained.The plot caused concern for those in Christian work,which was heightened when,two weeks ago,an unknown gunman shot at the house of a church planting partner,a man who helped Partners begin a church in a coastal town.Although no one was hurt in the initial attack,someone returned and poisoned the family dog.Another report indicated a thwarted murder plot of Pastor Wolfgang (pastoring the above mentioned church)in this same area.The investigation into the alleged plot has uncovered very little,but since the murders in Malatya (April 18),Wolfgang has had bodyguard.Yet,the threat has done little to stymie their vision.In fact,Partners just held a short training course to help encourage the church. The team taught participants about the spiritual disciplines of intercession,meditation,fasting,frugality,and confession.
