Praise Report:
-Praise God, He has kept us safe from the persecution and the corona virus.

Now the people are doing criminal activities like fighting, robbing, chain snatching, murder, etc. Recently, my cousin (a non-believer) killed his own mother (my mother’s sister), and one believer’s son went fishing and someone killed him and threw his body in a field.
