Phaneroo Ministries, a renowned Ugandan Christian organization led by Grace Lubega Matovu, recently marked their ninth anniversary by bringing together hundreds of members to break the longest applause world record.
926 people gathered at the UMA Multipurpose Hall in Uganda’s capital city, Kampala, to take part in this event, dubbed “Clap for Jesus”.
Phaneroo are known for their lively, high-spirited assemblies, and this record attempt was no different.
The congregation clapped for a total of 3 hours 16 minutes, maintaining an average sound level of 88.5 dB. For the attempt to be valid, they had to remain above 80 dB for the entire duration.
The previous record of 2 hours 5 minutes was set in 2019 by Clark Stevens and The Festival of Awesomeness (UK).
