Evangelical tracts tell tsunami survivors to 'prepare for death'

-13/01/05

A major evangelistic organisation in the US has given a relief agency leaflets to distribute to tsunami survivors which tell them to prepare for death.

The tracts, which describe in detail famous disasters and tragedies from around the world, suggest that people can be 'saved' if they confess their sins.

The American Tract Society has released the new tracts entitled "When Disaster Strikes" for donation to Victims Relief Ministries who are sending more than 200 workers to Sri Lanka.
