"The administration should back up these words by actions and appoint a qualified Ambassador for International Religious Freedom who has experience in international diplomacy and religious freedom issues," said Open Doors USA in comments monitored by BosNewsLife Friday, February 5.

In one of the latest known attacks in the U.S, two street preachers were shot and killed by a teenager who apparently opposed their message. Tite Sufra, 24, and Stephen Ocean, 23, were shot to death late Saturday, January 30, in Boynton Beach in the U.S. State of Florida, where they evangelized, after meeting 18-year-old Jeriah Woody, local police said.
