SW News: In solidarity with the persecuted Christians across the globe, the fourth annual March for the Martyrs will take place on September 30 in Washington DC. Hundreds of people are expected to participate in the event.
The day’s event would commence with the Kick-Off Rally on the National Mall at 3 in the evening. It would be followed by March for the Martyrs procession. A special prayer service will also be part of the event.
According to the website of its organizers For the Martyrs, they “are on a mission to bring the March for the Martyrs across the United States to place Christian Persecution on the forefront of the fight for Human Rights”.
