 Saturn became mad when it see faithfulness of God's children.  It is using all of it techniques to attract them. This week denomination group troubled a lot in Ramanjaneyapuram.  At the time of worship in Ramanjaneyapuram church of Christ they sing songs though the loud speakers along with several musical instruments like drums, harmony, jaws etc . And speak in the loud speaker with big voices and even in the middle speech they use instruments. That is like a musical party. And a lady also spoke in that program. It is nearer to our church building and where we have no walls for our building to stop that sounds. It was continued as long as the worship time. We are very sad for the situation and sorry for these evil activities to disturb the worship. We are asking you please pray with us to overcome the activities of Saturn. We sing with our lips and i preach with out loud speaker. It is very horrible day . We worship in spirit and in truth. We don't have peace because of this denominational group.  

They are the denominational people who built their denomination building in a month. They are very rude and cruel. Their hearts became harden. They just do it as an entertainment  program and also against the Lord's church in Ramanjaneyapuram. They intentionally doing these type of unscriptural things.  Their intension is to attract the Christians in to their denomination at any means. Just they (denominational people) want to tell that we have no building, (but we have building with out walls), they said if we come to their denomination you can sit on good floor under the bright lights, (because we have only one bulb in  our church building) we have no music's, they want to show how melodious if several instruments are there in the services and they are arranging meals too. They have loud speaker. People usually like to sing or speak in loud speakers. And they brought some lady speakers who has false healing too.  I am sad for this situation.  I am trying to make individual visits personally and try to study them with the word.   But the congregation in Ramanjaneyapuram is faithful and praying. We need your prayers very much.
