Second Protestant church leader assassinated in Colombia.
A second Protestant church leader was assassinated in Colombia, marking another deadly attack on Christian ministry in the region. The victim was shot multiple times after leading a religious service.
Iván García, a 28-year-old Protestant church leader, was fatally shot six times, including twice in the head, after leading a religious service in northern Colombia last Wednesday, the U.K.-based group Christian Solidarity Worldwide reported Tuesday.
The attack occurred as García, his 14-year-old stepdaughter, and six others walked along a rural, unlit road following a spiritual celebration at the People of God Christian Vision Church. CP.
