Serpent-Handling Pastor Dies Hours After Bitten By a Rattlesnake

Nearly 30 years after his father died the same way.  Oops!  (HT: Alkibiades)

A Pentecostal reverend known for preaching with the help of a rattlesnake coiled around his arm lost his life when one of the creatures suddenly bit him.

Mack Randall Wolford, pastor at the Full Gospel Apostolic House of the Lord Jesus in Matoaka, West Virginia, died hours after receiving the deadly bite on Sunday – the day after his 44th birthday.

Wolford’s father, who was also a serpent-handling pastor, died in the same way nearly 30 years ago.

The apple never falls far from the tree, they say…
