WHAT A SAD DAY INSIDE THE HOUSE OF GOD
This morning, 7.00am mass, gun men entered a Catholic Church in Anambra state, town of Ozubulu, precisely at St Philip’s Catholic Church, Amakwa Ozubulu. These daredevils opened fire and killed several worshipers both young and old.
This is a gory attack on the church and on the children of God, but each time the devil shows up, the children of God have always conquered. WE SHALL TRIUMPH.
MANY PEOPLE HAVE BEEN CONFIRMED DEAD; OUR PRAYERS ARE WITH THEIR FAMILIES AT THIS TIME OF GRIEF.
That you are counted among the living, PRAISE AND THANK GOD. HIS MERCY IS FOR EVER…… AND THESE KILLERS AND THEIR SPONSORS WILL NOT GO UNPUNISHED. OUR GOD OF VENGEANCE WILL FIGHT FOR US. AMEN
#Still on Jesus is Lord”
