The Christ Evangelical Intercessory Fellowship Ministry, Sabon Tasha, Kaduna has doled out over 500 food packages to Muslims, since the beginning of the Ramadan.


Pastor Yohanna Buru,the Church General Overseer, told the News Agency of Nigeria [NAN] in Kaduna on Monday that the food packages and drinks were shared out to destitutes and the poor.


He said that the Church was in the forefront of promoting religious tolerance in Kaduna State, adding that the gesture was to deepen peaceful co-existence between Muslims and Christians.


“We must support our brothers and sisters with what to eat in these 30 days, in view of the high cost of food items in local markets.
“This gesture will strengthen good relationship with Muslims and promote religious tolerance and better understanding among different faiths.”


According to him, it is not the first time the church is distributing foodstuffs to needy Muslims during the Ramadan.
Buru recalled that the Church had distributed over 1,000 packaged food and drinks to Internally Displaced Persons, destitutes and prison inmates in 2016.


The cleric stressed that Islam and Christianity have many things in common as contained in the Bible and Qur’an, adding, “we are all brothers and sisters and must support each other to live in peace and harmony.”
He decried the negative attitude of traders who usually take advantage of the Ramadan to hike prices of goods, saying that the action negates every tenet of religion.


Buru appealed to wealthy Muslims and Christians nationwide to support the poor, including widows and orphans to ease their pains.


One of the beneficiaries, Malam Wambai Isa, who is the leader of visually impaired persons in the state, commended Buru for his relentless efforts to bring succour to less privileged persons.(NAN)

Giving them food out
Of pity is a good gesture..

See how skinny and dry
They now look.. Cause
Of Allah.. An illusion
A powerless whatsoever..

When will my people
Be liberated from their
Self inflicted mental
Slavery called religion..

God bless the church of God,the need the food after fasting because a hungry man is an angry man

xstry:
so? Should he fry beans?

No, he should hide his face in shame..... cos he is a religious bigot which you know too well

When you smile and show kindness to those head slamming mofos, they turn around and stab you at the back.

Ok, Sabon tasha peps , I hail una

No Gospel is more understandable than this

Why una go share food give person wey nor ask?

Nollywood will title this "COULD THIS BE LOVE"

This does still not stop some bad elements among them from burning churches, killing and raping.

Good gestures though.

Feeding those that will slaughter you at a moment's notice.

Well done.

And they kill u in return...Such cows

One idiot spotted .....better to keep mute than speak and U clear everyone's doubt

Most likely not borne out of goodwill. This move was likely driven by fear of future attacks on them

Kudos to the church. The more we see ourselves beyond our religious affiliations, the better for us as a country.

This is good.

HMMM

Afta dem Bellefull, one of them go come go bomb d church

I love the Church of Jesus that says, love your enemy don't jihad them.

Mat 5:44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;

The church of Jesus says feed your enemy, do not blow them up

Pro 25:21 If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink:

But Church please tell them about Jesus.

That kind gesture will not stop the blood socking monsters from slaughtering people when they get possessed.

Not one love at all

JESUS IS LORD

They go behind and refer to them as unbelievers "aruna", hypocrisy of the highest order.....

xstry:

El Rufai is not a bigot

That's the way to go and propagate a true gospel. Here Christians are reaching out in Muslims holy month while they're reciprocating by throwing bombs all over the world
