"Believe in our God!"
"The great She will give you shelter and give bright hope to those who are struggling in pain! She is Patty Rose, the goddess of happiness!"
When the horse carriage riding by the Mawei people arrived at the Znamensky Cathedral in the Central District, they saw a man standing on the statue platform. The golden ribbon is eye-catching in color, shouting loudly in the cold wind, promoting his doctrine.
"who is he?"
"It's a small local church from the Kingdom of Popon." Katerina said: "It's called the Church of Happiness. It believes in Patty Rose, the goddess of happiness. Its teachings are to bring happiness to people and send the gospel. Before Dino found me, Many such small churches visited me and wanted to be my supporter, but in the end I chose Truth Church.”
After Katerina made her decision, these small churches would of course have to find other ways. Their founders would probably have no choice but to preach their doctrine in Tyumen City, and they were preparing for a last ditch effort.
after all...
This is their last chance. If even the blank Romanov Kingdom rejects them, where else can they go?
"The Church of Happiness..." Ma Wei nodded: "I wonder if their god has arrived. I am quite interested in the goddess who can bring happiness to believers."
What is happiness?
The definition of happiness is too broad and varies from person to person, but it is definitely beautiful. Who doesn't yearn for beautiful things?
pity...
Words alone cannot make the teachings sink into people's hearts.
The four-wheeled carriage stopped in front of the Znamenski Cathedral. The housekeeper Liseld stood at the door and looked around. When he saw Ma Wei and others getting out of the car, he hurriedly came up to greet him and said with a smile: "Master, Father, You are finally here!”
Seeing this scene, the man standing on the statue platform stopped his speech, jumped off the stone platform, mixed into the crowd, and left in a hurry, not wanting to have too much contact with Ma Wei and others.
"Come on, follow me and find out the details of Xingfu Church."
"clear."
Lai Wen grinned, tapped the withered silver cane on the ground, and disappeared instantly.
Ma took Yunia's little hand and walked into the Znamensky Cathedral. She found that the place was empty. Although the ground was spotless, there was not a single utensil that should be seen. Only a few stone pillars supporting the dome were still strong. .
"This place was originally an abandoned place. The seats and confessional rooms were all smashed. Even the statues of gods were turned into a pile of rubble..."
The housekeeper Li Silde said: "When I came here before, it was no different from a rubble field. The dust was so high that it could choke people, and there was garbage everywhere. I couldn't help it, so I found someone to clean it all and put away the garbage. All the stones and other things have been thrown away, and you, the provincial master, have no place to live.”
There is a pulpit directly opposite the door of the church, and behind the pulpit there is a tall semicircular depression, inlaid with countless broken colorful glasses. It was originally supposed to be a place for placing statues of gods, but now...
There is nothing there.
The desolate and desolate church made Ma Wei very uncomfortable. He knew that this was the result of the choices of the times. There may be someone behind the collapse of the Apocalypse Religion, but it was by no means an accident and happened overnight.
But he couldn't help but wonder, could today's Apocalypse Church be the Church of Truth in the future?
One day...
Will the statue of the goddess Junia be toppled and smashed by angry people?
"There is nothing here, we need to buy some furniture...the glass also needs to be repaired..." Dino walked around the church and made suggestions for decoration.
"Just fix the glass, don't worry about the rest for now."
Ma Wei suddenly said: "There are so many refugees outside, what's the point of building the church to be magnificent? No matter how magnificent the statue is, as long as it cannot bring hope to believers, it will eventually collapse one day."
“But there’s nothing here, how can you preach?”
"There are many ways to preach. We have to assess the situation." Ma Wei looked at the refugees crowding on both sides of the road outside the church door and sighed: "Open the church and give the refugees a place to shelter from the wind and rain. Here There are plenty of empty seats, so accommodating a few hundred people won’t be a problem.”
Katerina glanced at him sideways, with a rare smile on her cold face: "Thank you."
"They are not only the people of the Romanov Kingdom, but also the future believers of the Church of Truth." Ma Wei said expressionlessly: "Just like you have recognized yourself as a king, I should also treat them as believers. .”
At Dino's signal, the housekeeper Li Silde walked out of the church and explained to the refugees outside that the church was open. In an instant...
As if fighting for the hope of the only bonfire in the cold night, the refugees rushed forward crazily and rushed towards Znamensky Cathedral.
It wasn't until a young man wearing a priest's robe and holding the little girl's thin hand blocked the door that they stopped temporarily and looked over in confusion.
"In such a difficult moment, I hope you can still stick to the beliefs in your heart, stick to your conscience and morality!" Ma Wei glanced around and said in a deep voice: "I am Ma Wei Enders, the priest of the Truth Church. Today, the Truth Church We are willing to open the church and provide you with a sheltered place because we firmly believe in the existence of the truth! Similarly, I also hope that you can give opportunities to the weak, the injured, women and children! They are more powerful than you. Need this opportunity!”
"At the same time, the Truth Church will build you temporary shelters that can withstand the cold wind. The conditions there may still be difficult, but they are enough to support you through the winter and support you through the most difficult moments!"
"The Church of Truth will not abandon you. Please believe that the sun sets today, but tomorrow... the sun will rise as usual!"
At first, the refugees were still hesitant about what Mawei said because they had heard too many similar theories. In recent days, there have been so many churches in Tyumen. Although their speeches were not as inspiring as Mawei's, they were full of connotations. The truth is not that far apart...
Who has actually done something practical?
It’s nothing more than painting a pie.
Compared with the temporary residence that has not yet appeared, the church in front of us is of course safer.
"Your Highness! It's Your Highness Katerina!"
Suddenly, someone among the refugees recognized Katerina Romanov standing behind Mavey. Looking closely, she seemed to be a strong man with a big belly and shrewd eyes.
"Her Royal Highness Katerina is back!" he continued to shout: "She will not abandon us! She is our God of War! She believes in the Church of Truth! We should also believe in her!"
The refugee group suddenly became noisy. As people living in the Romanov Kingdom, they had all heard of Katerina Romanov, the first princess who succeeded Peter the Great and is now the Grand Duke of Mosk. Under the governance of Moscow, Mosk and the surrounding areas are peaceful and stable, and life is prosperous...
A person who says this may be suspected of hype, but what if civilians and serfs from Mosk and surrounding areas say this?
This is the truth!
And the church chosen by such a great Highness...
It should be different from other churches, right?
After a brief hesitation, the refugees no longer poured into the church, but divided into two groups. The women and children, who were weak and unable to withstand the cold winter wind, entered the church. The men, who were relatively strong and had no worries for the time being, stayed behind. outside.
Mavie and Katerina looked at each other, turned to Dino and said, "Intensify the purchase of supplies for the winter, and then recruit people to build wind walls for the refugees."
"good."
