Transcription (Omeka Classic)
Speaker 1 00:00
Let’s, let's begin with, with the first question. How has COVID-19 affected your faith or belief?
Speaker 2 00:09
Very minimally, it has done nothing but support previously held faith and encouraged me in personal growth.
Speaker 1 00:21
Okay. Is your religious community still gathering currently? And how has COVID-19 affected your participation in your religious community?
Speaker 2 00:32
The community is still gathering but not physically, we moved everything online, if possible. As for participation within it, the, everybody involved in charge has gone out of their way to make sure that they are keeping everyone can [INTELLIGIBLE] out there. And there's communication interaction that way.
Speaker 1 01:01
Alrighty. And then last question, is your religious community supplying or engaged in any kind of community service in an attempt to help alleviate all of the issues caused by this pandemic? And so, what efforts?
Speaker 2 01:18
Yes, yes, we are involved in such efforts. A lot of the people involved in our religious community or church, a lot of the people have been hit pretty hard with the fact that you know, they can't go to work anymore. A lot of them were pretty close to paycheck to paycheck already. And so, because of that, taking advantage of how God has blessed the church financially, we've been putting all of that time energy and resource, mostly resource back into helping them by getting just a couple of people, I can count them all on one hand to come and prepare food boxes, they're all from the same place. So, we contamination risk is at a minimal. Everything is done extremely safely and what they're doing is they're taking everything that they have saved up, and we are buying groceries and delivering them to all of these people who can't leave their house.
Speaker 1 02:19
That's actually pretty cool. All right. Well, that concludes this interview. So, thank you very much for participating.
