Kanye West’s Osteen Sunday Service Had Big Covers, Late Ye Appearance

Kanye West is about to perform his Sunday Service at Joel Osteen‘s megachurch in Houston … and TMZ is streaming it live.

As we previously mentioned … Ye brought his choir out for the weekend trip, where they’re set to take the stage at 7 PM CT (5 PM PT) at the Lakewood Church — a place thousands of worshipers come out each week to hear Joel and co. preach from the pulpit.

It’s bound to be a packed house again for Sunday’s ticketed event, especially after Ye made an appearance in the morning … standing shoulder-to-shoulder with Joel and talking God.

You’ll recall … it was an eventful chat Kanye and Joel had onstage, with Ye touching on everything from his own upbringing in the church, to how he’s an employee of God’s now, and even going to bat and defending Joel and his reputation in the Christian community.

Ever since Kanye dropped his new album, ‘Jesus is King,’ he’s been performing pretty consistently with his choir … playing a bunch of his new songs too, of course. The format thus far has been pretty similar in style to what we’ve seen in Calabasas and elsewhere.

But with such a big audience tuning in this time around — and a just-announced opera on the horizon — it’ll be interesting to see what surprises Kanye and his team have in store for the Lakewood congregation.
