To curb the spread of Coronavirus, the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has advised churches to conduct church services in their home or online in Nigeria.
According to the President of CAN, Dr. Samson Ayokunle in a statement yesterday advised Christians to adhere to the ban of not more than 50 persons in a church meeting, worship or social gathering.
“Therefore, use house cell-based service or online service…Services can be broken into shifts of not more than 50 members,” Ayokunle said in the release signed by his spokesman, Pastor Adebayo Oladeji.
The CAN leader also urged Christians across the country to observe Sunday 22 and 29 March, 2020 as days of prayers against the Covid-19 pandemic.
“Our prayers should be as follows: That God should stop the spread of coronavirus in Nigeria and all over the world; That God should protect Nigerians from this disease and that God should heal those who have been infected already,” he said.
