The present members, most of them over 60 years old, will be invited to worship elsewhere, the St. Paul Pioneer Press reported. The church is asking that they stay away for two years, then consult the pastor about reapplying.
Flat out told them to stay away for 2 years!!!
I think you missed this:
“The older members will not be physically barred from attending, Peters said, but the expectation is that they wont.”
