Wish I could see a list. Maybe I could find one closer to home.

My church won’t open and so far has no criteria set to ever reopen. Very discouraging.

So I’d like to find something close.

May 15 would have really been a thrill. A lot can happen giving government a 3 week warning.

As a Christian who has attended a “megachurch” for the past 30 years, I applaud them. I believe in freedom of choice.

However, I’m OK for now with listening to online sermons this summer and reading my Bible. My choice. I do hope the Christian camps for my teens will open this summer.

This is a different “season” for Christianity. I suspect (and hope) many more are turning to God, with or without crowded churches.

“The leaders chose May 31 because it marks Pentecost and the birth of the Christian church, making it fitting for a “rebirth” of services.”

So dishonest.They need the money, these false prophets. So when are their property taxes due? Remember “Give unto Cesar?”.

Most pastors don’t care about you. They just want your donations. Follow the money.

If you want to hear the Good Word, read the Bible with your family/friends. Or by yourself. You can read, can’t you?

Going to church on Sundays is a wonderful way to connect with other Christians, sing beautiful hymns together and worship the Lord. The Bible calls for us to worship together Of course the churches need money to keep the doors open and to fund many good causes but I think most does not come from the passing of the plate on Sunday but other forms of giving. Many of us really miss our Sundays at church and are ready to go back.

California was to be the model of the new leftwing totalitarianism in America.
