More austerity protests planned in Romania
Romania (MNN) — Protestors in Romania clashed violently with riot police earlier this week with the promise of more to come. The mob was a response to the bite of new austerity measures, which sparked the backlash. Evangelist Sammy Tippit explains: “The economic crisis has grown. It has taken strong hold in Romania right now with the austerity measures that have been taken. It’s very difficult for people financially, and people are hurting, discontent and taking to the streets.” Tippit has a long history with believers in Romania, so this crisis is especially personal. “The churches are still praying for God to intervene in this situation, because they remember when something very similar to this took place during the Revolution.” Tippet has been coming alongside church leaders to encourage and train them. In turn, he has received encouragement. “I believe that God is shaking the nations to their foundations. He wants us to turn to Him and seek Him for leadership.”
