Booze a�?churcha�� . . . where congregants openly drink, pray, with bishopa��s approval

JOHANNESBURG a�� A Gauteng church is evangelising in a different way.

Congregants openly drink and pray, with the approval of the Bishop.

But the SA Council of Churches says people are attracted to the Gabola Church because it satisfies their desire to drink liquor.

The church says it prides itself as a home for those rejected because of their love of alcohol.

But the Council says this is not a church.

Some congregants say theya��ve found their perfect place of worship a�� but no Under 20a��s are welcome.

The church has recently opened a branch in the Free State and it plans to extend its reach to other parts of the country.

This is now probably the most famous drinking spot in Orange Farm, outside Johannesburg. a�� eNCA
