“It is our small gesture to show that we care and we want the family of Pastor Raymond to know that we are praying for the safe return of Pastor,” he said.
“We are calling for as many participants to our vigil and prayers, to pray for the safe return of Pastor Raymond and also pray for God’s assistance to help the police to resolve this case.”
