The Hallelujah Challenge which produced one of the now trending hash tags, #olowogbogboro, has shown us a new way the social media platform can be beneficial to the church. Social media has been a tool for bringing church programs to the public. Services are streamed online, podcasts are broadcast, awareness for events are created online, all in order to reach the world from any corner the church is situated. Apart from these traditional functions of the social media to the church, it’s no longer wrong to say that it can also serve as a venue for church programs. The recent live video feature on Instagram and Facebook seems to have made it possible to have a vigil convening over 50,000 participants daily without a physical location. Thanks to Nathaniel Bassey whom God used to bring this to light via the #TheOneHourHallelujahChallenge cum #olowogbogboro vigil innovation. Thereof, we should keep our fingers crossed as more churches might key into this vigil style, which will in fact attract more users and more converts.
