The Catholic Bishop of Enugu Diocese, His Lordship, Callistus Onaga on Saturday banned priests from conducting crusades in their parishes.
Mr Onaga announced the ban in his homily at the ordination of 26 priests and the celebration of 50 years anniversary of the Sacred Heart Seminary, Nsude (Junior Seminary) in Enugu.
He charged the priests to organise retreats for their parishioners and pay greater attention to prayers and not hold crusades.
Onaga who was celebrating his 55th alma mater warned priests against forming prayer groups, but to take their members to approved prayer places like Ugwu Dì Nso, monastery and others.
“Do not adopt the Pentecostal approach of service, and be careful in forming prayer groups,” he charged.
