A Nigerian pharmacist, identified as Blessing Mary Ochiedo, has shared her experience after attending Catholic and Pentecostal churches in the UK.
Taking to Facebook, the mobility-challenged pharmacist, who relocated from Nigeria about a year ago, highlighted the vast difference between churches in Nigeria and the UK.
She explained that in the UK, nobody is trying to win her soul or use her for ‘miracle’ experiments, and the sermons were neither patriarchal nor ridiculous like in some Nigerian churches.
The mother of one wrote on Sunday, January 7,
“I went to church a lot last year. Going to church (non-African ones) in the UK is such a wholesome and a wonderful experience. It’s a good way to be part of a community especially as an immigrant with no family here.”
“No one is trying to “win your soul”, use you for “miracle” experimentations and the sermons are free of patriarchal or other ridiculous content.
“You just sit back and enjoy the music that brought you there. Usually, we go for catholic masses but last Sunday, we tried a Pentecostal church and we loved it too. It was giving Hill Song, Women of Faith, Ron Kenoly and Don Moen vibes.”
