Los Angeles County to Pay $400,000 Settlement to Church Who Defied Pandemic Lockdown

The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors approved a settlement to Grace Community Church in Sun Valley, who kept their doors open throughout the COVID-19 pandemic despite L.A. County’s health order.

The county settled for $400,000, which will come from the county Health Department’s budget and will go to pay the church’s legal fees. The state will reportedly pay an additional $400,000 under the agreement.

“It appears that the county wants to settle this because they do not want a trial,” the church’s pastor, John MacArthur, said from the pulpit in a video posted on Aug. 30.

I’ve been to Grace Community Church in Sun Valley a number of times mostly for the Christmas concerts. I liked everyone I met there. The law suit was over a parking lot that they rented from the city for a large price. The city broke their contract over “covid” rules.
