Fake Christians Outed By Minister Dressed As Drunk

Churchgoers were left shamed after they ignored a tramp who turned out to be their minister in disguise

"The Rev Derek Rigby sat in the porch to his church as the congregation arrived for a Sunday service, hidden beneath a wig and scruffy clothes.
He then settled on a pew in the church surrounded by syringes and began drinking from a can of beer.
But none of the worshippers at the Trinity Methodist Church in Prestatyn, North Wales, spoke to him or offered him any help."

The 51-year-old then took off his wig to reveal his true identity, before delivering a sermon based on the failure of the disciples to recognise Jesus Christ on the road to Emmaus after his resurrection.
Rev Rigby said: "It was interesting to see the reaction from people - I was totally ignored."

I admire the guy's guts, he probably shook a whole bunch of people up.

I wonder how many of the flock won't show up again either out of shame or because they got very pissed off that they had to examine them?

A true man with a true mission. Sounds like the kind that won't turn away the homeless without a helping hand. The country needs more like him.
