A Catholic priest from the Biñan Parish in Philippines has just recently been suspended after footage emerged of him delivering a Christmas Eve mass while he was riding a hoverboard.
According to the reports, the priest from Our Lady of Miraculous Medal, Biñan Parish, has been suspended by his local Diocese. Although the name the priest has not been released, some reports identified him as Fr. Falbert San Jose.
The Diocese of San Pablo, Laguna, has recently released a statement about the controversial incident. They said: “the Eucharist demands utmost respect and reverence. It is the Memorial of the Lord’s Sacrifice.
It is the source and summit of Christian life. It is the Church’s highest form of worship. Consequently, it is not a personal celebration where one can capriciously introduce something to get the attention of the people.”
According to the reports, the priest has apologised for his action and that he would be “out of the parish and will spend some time to reflect on this past event.”
