Kaduna: Bishop laments 60% drop in offering and tithe

 

Kaduna Diocese of the Church of Nigeria (Anglican Communion) has said that its worshippers' attendance has dropped below 70 per cent.

Most Rev. Josiah Fearon, the Diocesan Bishop stated this during the church's 19th Synod in Kaduna, were he attributed the poor attendance of faithful to the current national security challenge.

Fearon lamented that the drop in church at tendance has also contributed to a drop in the
church's earnings in tithe and offering and other developmental projects.
The said the reason for the decrease is attendance is as a result of the boko haram bombing.....i mean, no one wants to be bombed to death. Therefore, he has urged the Federal Government to help the northern state governments to implement the recommendations of the Sheikh Ahmed Lemu Panel aimed at restoring peace. The government should please do something about this ooo....we cannot continue to lose our fellow Nigerians to this so called boko haram....
