Netizens are amused by how congregants are made to jump over burning candles to approach their pastor for prayers or blessings. Church members in variouis acts of worship in the church. What about young kids? In a series of videos, the men who wear long kanzus and women who put on long dresses with head scarves jump over the candles along the aisle and only stop when they get to the man of God.
In a video shared on TikTok by @merciachoco3Cute, children are also not spared. They expertly jump over the candles, and one can only hold their breath, hoping they don’t fall or their dresses and kanzus don’t catch fire because of the candles.
How are children blessed? Like in other churches, the pastor also prays for the babies of his church members. Parents who require prayers for their babies are also made to jump precariously with the little bundles of joy in their arms. Some netizens were concerned about the safety of the babies as their parents jumped up and down with them. Kenyans react to the video:
Skincare Vendor In Ibadan: “This pastor has turned his members to subway surfers.” prudence chilufya: “But what happens if you kick the candles.” Thandaza: “I’m clumsy…I would knock all the candles😅😅.”
Classy Cessly: “Sasa akiangukia hio moto aangushe mtoto akufe bure??….atasema alikuwa anafanya🤣🤣” small girl with a big God: “Me with my big breakfast l can’t manage this jump let me serve my Jesus in peace.”
