I listened to a lecture about martyr's in the Early Church ( before the year 300). This and some material I have read made me think that the death of Christians in public places at that time was a kind of mass evangelism.
In those days and times they could not evangelize openly, just like in Saudi Arabia today; but their deaths in amphitheaters, and on the fire steaks were used as witnesses to all who were left.
In August 2008, the murder of the Saudi girl by her own Father became a public event due to the internet. You can Google the story.

Let's pray that the blood of today's martyr's will continue to cry out and cause more and more curiosity and discussion.
Pray that the discussions will lead into sincere search for the truth.
Pray that there will be believer's who will be able to share the word and their faith.
