We have come across the church<\/a>. And it is that sometimes we forget that, after giving the sermon every day, priests also have a life: they take off their cassock and go shopping at the supermarket, have a drink at the bar and watch the game or listen to heavy metal, depending on what they feel like. Or, why not, play some video games. God understands not putting in extra hours praying.<\/strong> The problem is that there has been one who has gone a little overboard with heavenly forgiveness.<\/p>\n\n\n

Candy Crush, amen<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Pottstown is a small town in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, named after its founder, John Potts, and home to about 23,000 people who even have their own newspaper (‘The Mercury’, the smallest media outlet to ever win two Pulitzer Prizes), their own television, and, of course, a proper cathedral. That’s where Reverend Lawrence Kozak, 51 years old, delivers his sermons.<\/strong> Or, well, used to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And it turns out that Kozak likes to play with his mobile phone, maybe too much. So much so that when a church accountant discovered “an astronomical amount of transactions from Apple” between September 2019 (when the reverend entered the church) and July 2022. And what abominations has this sinner spent the money on? Well, on microtransactions from ‘Candy Crush’ and ‘Mario Kart Tour’<\/strong> that added up to 40,000 bucks, in addition to an Amazon tablet for his goddaughter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
