I think the government should allow this based on the guidelines highlighted by CAN. They can monitor for compliance. We're tired of this lockdown!!! |

CAN values money more than lives of the worshipers. When the worshipers contact COVID_19 and are not able to work, there will be nobody to pay Tithes and First Fruits. 1 Like |
