A priest in the Philippines has been suspended by the church after video shared on social media showed him gliding on a hoverboard while preaching during mass.
The video which has racked up millions of views, showed Father Albert San Jose from the Philippines Diocese of San Pablo gliding on a hoverboard during a Christmas Eve mass at the Lady of Miraculous Medal church in Biรฑan town.
While the parishioners enjoyed seeing their priest having a good time, the stunt did not go down well with the priestโs bishop.
โThat was wrong,โ the archdiocese said in a statement released on Tuesday. โThe Eucharist demands utmost respect and reverence. It is the Memorial of the Lordโs Sacrifice. It is the source and summit of Christian life.โ
Father Jose later apologized for the stunt, saying it will never happen again
