Bar tables were placed inside the church and pastors dressed as waiters served bibles on trays n a mock service as part of call for religious services to be allowed during Argentina’s coronavirus lockdown

Daniel Cattaneo, a pastor, said “We are standing here today dressed like this, carrying a tray, because it seems this is the only way we can serve the word of God”

The province of Santa Fe, where Cattaneo’s church is located, has been successful at containing the virus and has started reopening activities, including bars, but churches are still being allowed to receive a maximum 10 people per service.

Argentina, which has recorded 28,764 cases and 785 deaths, mostly located in Buenos Aires, is in a staged reopening.
