“Mob Attacks Church in Depok, Forcing Congregation to Shift to Online Worship,” International Christian Concern, September 28, 2023:

09/28/2023 Indonesia (International Christian Concern) – On the morning of Sept. 16, approximately 50 people arrived at the Maranatha Chapel, which serves as the prayer house or chapel for the GBI Cinere Christian congregation in the Gandul area of Cinere, Depok City. The group created a disturbance with many shouting and pushing against the fence of the shophouse that functions as the church building.

Fortunately, no congregational services were taking place at the Maranatha Chapel during this incident. After creating a disturbance by shouting and banging on the chapel gate, most of the disrupters eventually left the premises.
