CWN Editor's Note: Bishop Edward Hiiboro Kussala of Tombura-Yambio has condemned a violent attack on a parish church in South Sudan.
Gunmen opened fire indiscriminately at St. Mary Help of Christians parish, a church located amid a refugee camp, leaving one man dead and a woman seriously wounded. “A church, mosque, hospital, school, or embassy should always be places of refuge, peace, and safety,” Bishop Hiiboro said.
