"There is nothing wrong with alcohol!": how services are held in a church for drunkards
Categories: Africa
By Pictolic https://www.pictolic.com/article/there-is-nothing-wrong-with-alcohol-how-services-are-held-in-a-church-for-drunkards.htmlGabola Church in Johannesburg has been offering its services to people who have been rejected in other parishes due to drunkenness since November 2017. Services are held in bars, and at this time parishioners are allowed to drink alcohol.

Bishop Makiti used to be a junior priest in the Old Apostolic church, but then he quarreled with other churchmen and founded his own Gabola Church: the word Gabola in the Tswana language means "to take a sip". Makiti likes to drink himself: in photos from the services he appears with a bottle of whiskey.

At Easter, Bishop Makiti was proclaimed an African Pope.
So look wider and pay attention to the statistics of incidents. Many people die young even without the effects of drinking. Among the bishops and pastors there are those who have raped and killed their loved ones. It's about the person, not the alcohol."
Bishop Makiti's Easter Address

Followers of the church drink beer during the service.

Also, the parishioners of this church sing and dance.
