Attacks against Christians in Burkina Faso are becoming more common and many people do not know if they will survive for another day, according to a local missionary.
Many Christians have seen their loved ones “beheaded, raped or reduced to sexual slavery”, Father Pierre Rouamba, Prior General of the Missionary Brothers of the Countryside told Catholic charity Aid to the Church in Need (ACN).
Father Rouamba said that “Christians are affected on a daily basis by the appalling actions of Al Qaeda and the Islamic State” in the West African country shaken by political conflict and military coups.
