The Jioji family of Loa Street on Princes Road were among the many Fijians who tuned into the Sunday church service online.
At 10am, members of the family dressed in their Sunday wear, hooked up their television to a wi-fi and tuned into the Christian Mission Fellowship sermon based from its World Harvest Centre in Newtown, Nasinu.
Christian Mission Fellowship International Director of World Mission, Pastor Laisiasa Jioji said: “Although we would want to worship as a church, the risk is high so we must all come together and support the Ministry of Health in their fight against this virus.
