From Kenya-Anglican Church of Kenya Archbishop Jackson ole Sapit has appealed to the government to allow churches to reopen with a condition of operating on under the guidelines set by the Ministry of Health.
Sapit said just like restaurants - which have been allowed to reopen pending obtaining of new permits - churches also have enough space to prevent close contact during their services.
“Using the church premises, not only the church building itself but the church compound, we can still gather people and worship God with strict measures,” Sapit said.
Sapit spoke on Thursday at St. Luke ACK in Narok county, where he asked the Ministry of Health to be transparent and give proper accountability on the resources put in their hands by well-wishers who have given money to combat Covid-19.

As the coronavirus shutdown drags on,
many churchgoers might be experiencing the longest absence of the
Eucharist they have had in years — perhaps even their lives.
And while faith leaders have resorted to virtual services or maybe even “drive-through Holy Communion,” there has been the debate about whether the Eucharist can still be called that if the pastor is alone in a church on Facebook Live.
The Eucharist is the Christian ceremony commemorating the Last Supper, in which bread and wine are consecrated. Faith leaders of different religions are divided on whether the Eucharist can be done at home.
Churches in the Catholic tradition, including Anglicans, Episcopalians and Old Catholics, often use the “Eucharist” term to refer to the entire rite, according to the Episcopal News Service website. The Communion is used for only the bread and wine, the sacramental elements itself.
The Church of the Apostles says, “because the Eucharist is vital to the Body of Christ, we are making every effort to receive this grace.” Each family and household can receive communion in the context of a shared, corporate worship service in their homes while worshiping online.
