This is the wholesome moment a priest joined in a water gun fight with devotees during a Catholic festival.

Father Feliciano Roxas Gutierrez was seen alongside a group of youngsters enjoying drenching one another during the San Sebastian festival in Metro Manila, the Philippines.

Footage captured by Dianne Sisante shows Father Feliciano holding a toy water gun and playfully returning fire at the teenagers, who were hitting him with blasts of water on January 20.

The priest and the young worshippers were soon completely soaked.

Delighted onlookers cheered for the church leader as he walked away to refill his water gun for the next round.

The Philippines is the only predominantly Christian nation in Asia, a legacy of three centuries of Spanish rule that has deeply embedded the Catholic faith and belief in miracles into the national culture.

The latest Census of Population and Housing by the Philippine Statistics Authority said that the country is home to over 99 million Christians.
