Displaying rare courage and resilience in Kaduna on Sunday, hundreds of worshippers returned to Saint Rita's Catholic Church in Kaduna town for a Sunday mass. The church was attacked by a suicide bomber last Sunday killing 8 and injuring over 120 churchgoers.
In a church service led by the injured parish Reverend, Fr Mike Boni Bazza, the worshippers said no amount of bombings will make them abandon their church and religion.
A member of the church, Mr. Matthew Bala who sent pictures of their service to online news media said in a telephone interview noted “No amount of bombings or attacks will make us forsake our faith and christianity indeed. Yes they attacked us like I told you last week, but in God we trust.
The church came before Boko Haram, and it will outlast the sect, so it shall be. They have no control over us and their days are numbered going by their act."
Bala also added that all injured members of the church that were discharged from hospital attended today's church service.
what a great faith to religion............Thank GOD for His grace!
ReplyDeleteFor all confused persons thinking these persons are insane, I think the words of Tertulian (about 150AD)explains this best; 'The blood of the martyrs are seeds of our faith!'.
