   Of the 160 , 000 Christians killed for their faith each year worldwide , about 130 are professional foreign missionaries , according to Peter Crossing , associate editor of the World Christian Encyclopedia. Many of the rest , including pastors , bishops , catechism teachers and fulltime church staff , are also killed for active evangelization , Crossing said.
   
   And that number doesn't include missionaries' deaths by disease , crimes or tragic accidents such as the plane shootdown over Peru.
   
   The organization that sent the Bowers family , the Association of Baptists for World Evangelism , is an agency for independent Baptists , separate from the Southern Baptist Convention. Its 900 missionaries often go into high-risk frontier situations , such as planting hospitals along the Amazon River. However , Peru is considered a mission-friendly nation , which made the shootdown even more shocking to missions directors.
