"It's an insult to your faith" Priest warns Catholics against joining Hallelujah Challenge during Lent

A Catholic Priest has urged Catholics to avoid joining the Hallelujah Challenge during Lent. Lenten season starts today, February 18, with Ash Wednesday.  During this period, Catholics avoid saying "Hallelujah" since they see Lenten period as a solemn season of mourning and Hallelujah is a term used for rejoicing. A Catholic Priest took to his Facebook account to send a message to Catholics as Nathaniel Bassey's Hallelujah Challenge and Lent fall within the same period. The priest wrote: "As a Catholic following the 'Hallelujah Challenge' during Lent is a big caricature of your baptism, Confirmation, all the Holy communion, masses and Rosaries you have ever done. "It is an insult to your faith and a testament of your faithlessness "Is the 'Hallelujah Challenge' bad? Ofcourse not!!! "However, if you are Catholic, you shouldnt be caught with ashes in the morning and at night time Halleluia is on your lips. "Catholics fast from HALLELUIA during Lent. "'If you want be a Catholic be a full-time Catholic' Blessed Michael Iwene Tansi." The post "It's an insult to your faith" Priest warns Catholics against joining Hallelujah Challenge during Lent appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
