Priests, Medics and Scholars Attend Rome Exorcism Course


“Satan has much power and wants to cause a lot of damage to God’s people. However, Christ is risen and is all powerful. Therefore, with Him, we do not need to fear anything from the enemy,” says a priest from Haiti who has experienced, first-hand, those afflicted by demons.
