Letter from Burundi - bad news of escalating tension

                          Dear Pastor Mike,
Have our warm greetings.Thanks a lot for the visit planning.We pray for the program to
be accomplished next year as you suggested it.This year, the security in our coutry is getting worse and worse.The ruling party CNDD FDD conjointly with the National Electoral commission are accused of being involved in the theft of the first scrutin done on 24th,May 2O1O.
Therefore,strikes,killings,violences and arrestations are increasing.
By the way, let me ask you few questions:
   Are Pastors or Christians allowed to attend political activities?
   May I get some Biblical references to support my understanding?
The answers could help me to solve some problemes and probably help others to
manage this electoral period.
We will tell you the situation at the end of each scrutin.we have 5 and the last one is
scheduled on October 2O1O.Concerning the donations usages,I am waiting for the recapitulations from pastor Alexis.Good bye.
                    Give our regards to your church
