Gunmen Stop Sermon To Rob Churchgoers In South Africa

Gunmen stop sermon to rob churchgoers in a church in Johannesburg, South Africa. They stole from the congregants at gunpoint over the weekend.

The gunmen stopped the sermon before proceeding to collect cash and valuables from the people inside the Johannesburg Central SDA church, according to reports.

The moment the gunmen stop sermon to rob churchgoers was captured on the church’s live camera.

The church leaders later posted a message offering consolation to the members and asking members to attend a counselling service on Sunday, a day after the incident.

“We are praying for the church to unite in times like these, supporting each other both moral and practical,” the church said in the post, which included the video when the robbery occurred:
