CHRUCH BUILDING REBUILT IN ORISSA
During the last wave of attacks many church buildings and Christian centers were burned and destroyed. Two years after these attacks the believers of one village was able to rebuild their place of worship. Government gave them some financial assistance and with the cooperation and persistance of the believers the work was done. Although some opposition exists even in this community the believers are determined to continue living and worshipping here even if it means their lives will have to be sacrificed.
