In an entirely unprecedented move, the body which represents all Pentecostal<\/a> and Charismatic believers worldwide has issued a warning today. This is in reaction to the announcement by astronomers that a once in a lifetime planetary alignment will occur this Sunday. The alignmentt will induce a feeling of near weightlessness. Due to concerns that believers who dance in church may injure themselves, all believers have been urged to do the following:- <\/p>\n

\u201cPretend you are presbyterians for the weekend and whatever you do DO NOT dance. Clapping and raising hands are not believed to be dangerous\u201d \u2013 Rev Dr Andrew Tonto, President of IFPCC<\/p>\n

It remains unclear whether every believer will respond to this serious warning.<\/p>\n
