“The four members alleged that the church had “proselytized in ways they believed to be offensive or that members of [the church] held unfavorable religious views of Native Americans or of Native American religious beliefs.””

According to the complaint (pdf), Light of the World Gospel Ministries had purchased several old and deteriorating buildings across the street from the church’s current meeting place in a downtown area in the village.

The village government initially approved the church’s building permit but later revoked it after four individuals testified at a board meeting. The four members alleged that the church had “proselytized in ways they believed to be offensive or that members of [the church] held unfavorable religious views of Native Americans or of Native American religious beliefs.”

They alleged that the MOSQUE had “proselytized in ways they believed to be offensive or that members of [the Mosque] held unfavorable religious views of Christian Americans or of Christian American religious beliefs.”
