Catholic altar wine replaced after becoming a favourite in Kenyan bars

The Catholic Church in Kenya has replaced a popular brand of altar wine after it became a favorite in local bars. The previous brand, which was widely consumed outside the church, was said to have lost its sanctity. The decision to replace the wine was made by the Kenya Conference of Catholic Bishops, who stated that the wine should be used exclusively for religious purposes and not for recreational drinking. The new brand of altar wine has been introduced to ensure that the sacred nature of the Eucharist is maintained. The move has been seen as a necessary step to preserve the integrity of the Catholic Church's practices and to prevent the misuse of the sacramental wine. The article highlights the importance of maintaining the sacred nature of religious rituals and the challenges faced by the Church in ensuring that its practices are not compromised.
