Wonders shall never end! A South Africa church is
currently making rounds on the internet due to after its unconventional way of
baptizing its faithful with their favorite alcoholic drink instead of water hit
the net.
The church known as Gabola was founded by 52-year-old Bishop
Tsietsi Makiti who is also the brain behind the idea of baptizing members with
their favorite beer.
He also said that the congregants at the Church have also
been given a go-ahead to drink alcohol during church services.
According to online reports, Bishop Makiti’s church has
witnessed its membership rocket to over 500 members in just under two months
due to the beer baptization.
According to the Bishop, he was motivated by the scriptures narrating how
Jesus changed water to wine.
He added;
"People who drink and get baptized by beer are happy and
peaceful. This means they are living in the shadow of God".
The church accommodates people who are not welcome at other
churches.
Its name ‘Gabola’ is the Tswana word for drinking. There is
only one branch at the moment but the Bishop is looking forward to expanding it
further.
