Seems like this is a revival or pocomania church, most of the 'traditional' churches like Anglican, Catholic definitely do not allow this.

wow that's amazing how your beautiful land of Jamaica celebrates at a funeral at a church. I'm sorry for a young loss but now he's in Jahs arms bein takin care of. May Jah bless him and his family & friends. Jah Bless

If you think this is not the "norm" you should see "they danced atop his casket" from New Orleans, the casket is lifted by the pall-bearers in the air accompanied by brass band music, swaying as if the deceased is dancing along, and lowered so the mourners can dance on it. This is an African traditional funeral procession brought back and practiced by Blacks in New Orleans in certain jazz funerals. New Orleans' practice rituals and customs of Africa in their dancing at "secondline" parades.

BOB MARLEY went out the same way they was celebrating all on the street. A fitting farewell.

@4freespeech they sometimes do that it Jamaica a swell, where i grew up they did that, marched for miles with the caskett and danced the longer they walked the better the funeral lol
-
wen i die i want peps to be like dis... no crying just dancing and celebration :)

this is a revival church ako pucco, perhaps its the only African origin church in Jamaica
Ever been to a New Orleans funeral?
They even hoist the casket up high and
"rock it" so the deceased can have "one
more dance" to the music.
Powerful, sentimental and touching.
Who says sending a loved one off to
heaven has to be SAD?
