A trending video has recorded the moment a Catholic priest gave an altar boy a heavy knock on the head for failing to keep the microphone steady as a couple exchanged vows on the altar.
The video making rounds across social media filmed the altar boy, holding the microphone to project the couple’s voice to the congregation as they exchange their vows.
As shown in the video, the priest repeatedly reprimanded the altar boy for not holding the microphone steady.
The priest was prompted to give the altar boy a heavy knock on his head for his behaviour.
Reactions have trailed the video, as many reminisced on their experience as an altar server in church.
Netizens expressed displeasure about the priest’s likely tendency to scold others in public by attacking them.
Below are some reactions,
@dee_sangonuga Sad part is the parent will tell the boy it’s a blessed knock😂
