Missionary Safe after Attack on Embassy
Message from Southern District Missionary Rev. Frederick Reinhardt:
“I am safe and sound here in Ouagadougou, following the attack this morning on the French Embassy and a military center downtown. I have heard of 30 deaths and 100 or more injured, and I don’t know if the 30 dead includes the 6 assailants killed.”
