General News of Friday, 20 March 2020Source: ghanaguardian.comCoronavirus: Churches resort to mobile money, smart payments to take collection, titheFile PhotoIt is obvious we are not in normal times with the heightened threat of the deadly coronavirus literally leaving everyone in the country in a pensive mood. Some church leaders have been angered by the situation ostensibly because of the financial toll it will have on them as they cannot take their usual 'collection', offertory and tithe. Some of them have resorted to online church services through digital platforms such as Facebooklive, periscopes and other video streaming sites. But the big question is how will they take the cash as was asked by Prophet Kumchacha on Wednesday 18 March 2020. Most churches have now resorted to mobile money and other smart payment platforms to receive their offertory and tithes as the government's directive on no church service bites hard on churches at least for the next four weeks.
