We Can’t Make This Stuff Up: Priest Sprays Congregation With Holy Water From Squirt Gun

With socially distant church services the norm in many places around the world, how does one receive an anointment from afar? Father Tim Pelc had the answer; filling up a squirt gun with holy water and blasting away at his congregation.

For Easter week services last month, the Detroit area priest went out into St. Ambrose Parish’s parking lot and fired at those in their cars lined up for the blessing.

Father Tim has gone viral after snaps shared on the church’s Facebook page made it onto Reddit, turning them into a meme-worthy Photoshop battle.
