The church has been closed since Saturday evening when it was notified of the first positive test result. A statement from the church said the venue will remain closed until further notice. "Two additional cases, parishioners who also attended services on these days, have now also returned a positive result for COVID-19, both of whom are in isolation," a statement said.

"NSW Health continues to advise against group singing and chanting in religious services, including choirs, given the high risk of transmission associated with these activities. This is particularly important at this time as NSW responds to a number of COVID outbreaks." NSW Health said people are encouraged to avoid"all non-essential travel" and to limit gatherings to 10 people.

'Psychological torture': Sydney Uyghur father fears for his wife and children in XinjiangSydney Uyghur Mamutjan Abdurehim has never spoken about his family's ordeal publicly before, hoping his silence might lead to a quiet reunion.

There's a cryptocurrency called Horizen that would also assist in covertly transferring cash/text.
