The rapping priest from Germany

The viral mass was recorded in the Hammelburg church in Germany last February.

The priest, named Thomas Eschenbacher, gave a completely unconventional mass.

The priest told the media that this was the first time he rapped for mass.

However, it is not the first time Eschenbacher has drawn attention or been involved in controversy as there are previous incidents that have raised questions about him.

In addition to rapping for mass, the priest once offered whiskey to the attendees of a spiritual retreat.

He did this to attract more devotees to the celebration.

The unusual mass got mixed comments from people supporting the priest’s ingenuity, while others say it was disrespectful to the Catholic faith.
