An app which was originally developed last year by Nigerian tech company Applus Dome Limited, is helping Christians with worship services in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic. O’Sanctus was originally developed as a management tool for one catholic church. However, it is currently used by four parishes and has over 3000 subscribers.
The app enables worshippers to attend church services, make financial offerings and schedule times to interact with priests.
Speaking about the app, Mercedes Otakponmwenhi, revealed that it was originally created to help one church digitise some aspects of its services. It was not anticipated that the app would become this useful especially as online church services have become widespread in Nigeria. Although the Nigerian government has eased restrictions on the conduct of in-person church services, it maintains that churches operate at 50% capacity per service and hold one service per week.
