There were five ordinations in Orissa, the very province where Hindu terrorists were hunting down Christians, killing them, and burning their churches, convents, farms, and schools two years ago.
Catholic Online reports: According to Fr Ajaya Sabhasundar, the five seminarians’ spiritual leader, persecution has strengthened the faith of local Catholics. “Pogroms gave our people a chance to express their faith with courage and conviction. Persecution is part of the history of the Church and our people have experienced it in their lives; this has strengthened their faith. Ordination of these five young people bears witness to that.” Read full report here.
