Is It Proper For A Church To Be Situated Inside A Hotel? by Nobody: 8:53am On Oct 04, 2015
Some churches in NIGERIA have made so much metamorphosis during their nascent years and part of this changes is citing their church in a hotel. Some of them believe it attracts more members since the venue is attracting, while others use the excuse that since they are yet to have a permanent site, the hotel is a temporary locale...

Whatever their reasons are, is it proper for a house of GOD to be in a place where lots of ungodly act goes down? Or is the church trying to take the Gospel down to the heathens?


This is common in the SouthSouth and I noticed these aforementioned uses exotic hotels. So is this proper or improper, bearing in mind that there are Lots of side attraction that will engage members hence leading to them not concentrating on the business of spiritualism.



What's your opinion?

A church being situated in a hotel is not morally wrong in itself, but due to the mindset/ idea people have been made to noture as a result of illicit activities practiced within the premises if a hotel.

This therefor makes people raise eyebrow when they hear of church in a hotel. So to safe a church from wrong notion its better to seek other venue other than hotels.

Most of these desperate pastors can even use a brothel as their church and would still have members. I was once in Asaba and lodged in Delta Park Hotels. On Sunday morning I was agog to hear sounds of drums, clapping and songs. It so disturbed me that I left the hotel and promised never to return there.
To me, a true pastor should use a school rather than a hotel as a site. Not that it's a sin or something but it is ethically wrong. Hotels are built for rest and not worship. Those pastors using it are simply desperate to make money. Whatever happened to event centers, schools, public places or even plain outside?


Another thing I hate is when people don't know where and when to preach and even who to preach to. I took Delta City Bus the other day and was surprised that a pastor was allowed to preach all through from Warri to Abraka. I was appalled and even decided to report the trend to the management. For God's sake we entered a bus and not a church! Some overdo Christians just don't know when to keep their evangelical mouth shut.

Funny thing is that the way he was preaching, I never expected him to ask for money. Then the words came: "support the ministry!" Which ministry? The one on the bus or God's ministry? That young pastor must have made atleast 1k there and then. He convinced passengers that he wants to build a church and is looking for funds. I was like "na bus u wan take get money for church ni? Gerrarorahere man"

You see, everything is obtainable these days. Many churches even use club houses that were open the previous night.

We keep discovering new ways of doing things in Nigeria. Churches have to expand.

Any church situated in a hotel.. Is considered a Business Venture and the pastor is considered a Business Man

A place of worship is supposed to be sacred and holy at all times...
