Flamenco Dancing?! This Priest Has A Different Approach To Traditional Mass

A bit of a legend.

Cathy Donohue

Father Pepe, or Jose Planas Moreno to give him his full name, has made mass a popular pastime thanks to his novel approach.

 The Roman Catholic priest is what we in the Her.ie office term a hero, he’s well able to have fun and often dances with members of his congregation.

Father Pepe says dancing brings him closer to God and a recent video taken at a local feast day has gone viral on various social media networks, ensuring his name is now recognised beyond Malaga.

The 66-year-old will retire this September and it is sure to be a huge loss to Campanilla, Malaga where queues regularly form outside the Nuestra Señora del Carmen church to see Father Pepe.

What an absolute legend!
