    The theft was wrong . . But if that person has stolen due to poverty and feed his hungry family then God bless him... I don't think he will get much other than chillar...

    As the economic situation worsens, such incidents are bound to increase; people should not depend on anybody to take care of their money & valuables!!

    Pray for them who stole this money, may be it was emergency for them or their families. May their necessities being fulfilled soon. May God forgive them specially during this holy week. Once he earns that money I am sure he will offer the same to the church.

    Henceforth keep doors of church open. Needy will take the advantage and will return the same..when situation become normal. Even let homless people take shelter inside church maintaining some distances.

    During corona crises..no one bother about karma. Survival the fittest. People who died without liquor are much rather than thru corona virus.

    This is another socioeconomic effect of CORONA; churches r sitting ducks for burglars!!

    Churches should ensure emptying of cash boxes every day before winding up!

    Mr Rajaram your comments are quite disturbing especially on a public domain , making fun of a situation is not a good idea. stop this nonsense of spreading blasphemous on a religious place of worship.

    I condemn the comments made by Rajaram. East or west Church is the best place to worship. It is all about the faith, not money. I have a doubt on you Rajaram. Be careful.
