Diocesan Bishop of Lagos, Rt. Rev. Humphrey Olumakaiye, of the Anglican Communion, has said that no virus or disease can be contracted by worshippers, likewise in the church of God.
Olumakaiye affirmed that even when members use the same cup for "Holy Communion" in the church, they still could not contract any virus.
According to the cleric though a statement released on Wednesday, the principle was beyond tradition as it was divine.
“However, in obedience to all laid down protocols of wearing nose masks, regular washing of hands, physical distancing and so on, our churches have made adequate preparations. In all of these, let the joy of the Lord be our strength, because that is what we will be spreading and not any virus,” he added. (Culled from PUNCH)
He also commended the government for its effort in curtailing the further spread of COVID-19 in the country.
