The windows had “blown out from some type of explosion,” Cano said. The walls outside had been vandalized with profanity.

Labeled a hate group for being “anti-LGBTQ” by the Southern Poverty Law Center, the First Works Baptist Church is the subject of a Change.org campaign that’s seeking to oust the place of worship out of El Monte. The petition was started three weeks ago and has so far garnered more than 14,790 signatures.

A group called Keep El Monte Friendly had planned a protest at the church this Sunday morning.

El Monte? That entire region is flat out depressing and dangerous.

Is there anyone at ADL or MSM that can tell the Truth?

"El Monte police are investigating an early Saturday
explosion at a church whose stance against same-sex relationships
has raised tensions in the community in recent weeks. "

May the Gay and Lesbian people can find another church that they feel comfortable in.

The church began in persecution,often meeting secretly in the homes of the believers.

It would not surprise me if the church age closed out in the same circumstances.

Communists violently attack and destroy churches. They tolerate no opposition, free speech or free thinking. Don’t expect Newsom, Harris, or Biden to visit that church and make a noble speech about constitutional rights.

Everyone should watch “Shakytown”, the documentary about the gay lobby in SF under mayor Newsom. They firebombed a pastor’s home in the early stages of the sodomite “whatever” (posing as marriage) debate.

I doubt they would feel comfortable in a independent, fundamentalist Baptist church to begin with.
