RIVERLIFE CHURCH
Child and youth activities halted; other churches taking precautions
By Ang Yiying
ALMOST all of the members of Riverlife Church in Loyang who have contacted the Influenza A (H1N1) virus attended a youth service held on June 13.
About 330 people, mostly youth of secondary school to junior college-going age as well as several youth leaders, were part of that service.
The church received confirmation of its first two H1N1 cases last Friday and has since suspended all its child and youth-related programmes, affecting about 800 of its members, said Riverlife management staff member Sarah Leung.
