Moscow a church has vanished from the Russian village where it stood almost 200yrs the local dioces said
The church of christs Ressurection in the central village of komarovo was built in 1809 but in early october some one took it away brick by brick father vitaly a spokesman for the local Russian orthodox church told Ruters
we have sent a letter to the local prosecutors he said who exactly did this the investigation wil show
a survey of the two story church few months ago found that it was structurally sound but now all that remains is the foundations and sections of walls statement said
Criminals target religous icons stored in churches because they can fetch a good price and church buildings are dismantled to provide building materials
this is not an isolated case says father vitaly in many villages in central russia sites of historical intrest being dismantled and people suffering by being deprived their heritage culture
what the father should have said there are kids living in the streets orphans begging for money and people in need of real help one of the elders in my church has connected with a church in russia that is doing the work this proffessing priest should be doing my friend who is a builder and his wife are doing what they can to help this penticostal pastor see his dream come true right now they are in need of a home for the orphans the church has in their care the members in the church have taken the kids on my friend has sent money every week to the pastor for the work to continue he went over early this year with his wife and daughter they had adopted from china he layed the foundation and did some work around the church our church has gotten behind my friend and the pastor when the home is built it wil be right for what his vission is where girls boys and babys can be cared for and not dumped on churches door steps by mothers who cant look after their kids
we asked him what the catholic church is doing he said nothing it closes its eyes and sucks up to the kgb and the russian goverment while pastors like the one my friend is helping who is in real need of help get hounded by the kgb and the police and the goverment my friend at one stage thought his religous visa would not be accepted the kgb took their time and he had to be patient they wanted to know everything what his intentions were how long he was staying and with who
when i read this i cracked up brick by brick the church was taken this lot worry about their land their buildings more than they worry about the people who are in real need of help i wil be sending this to the pastors i know they wil crack up over this story one day it was their and the next day the church is gone has any one seen my church
we meet out side when its to hot in the philippines and we dont fuss over our land or our buildings like the catholics do as if the prosicutor can snap his fingers and bingo the church is fulley restored and in its right place
know why did not i think of it when i defiled a few statutes that belonged to the catholic church instead of painting satan rules and saying cheech and chong are cool keep on smoking instead of keep on trucking we defiled churches that belonged to the catholic church when i was a sinner my old man would brake into the catholic church in our village and move things around one day he and his mates brought the cofins up and put them in the main hall i wil not say what the catholic priest said but i can tel you he was swearing in our language dad new how to push his buttons
reward trip around the world if you tel the catholic priest who took their church all expenses payed for by the pope
