Kansas City, Missouri, officials are now requiring every church to submit a list of members and attendees along with their names, addresses and telephone numbers to city officials for tracking and surveillance purposes.
I am running out of adjectives to describe how completely insane the tyrannical abuses launched by state governors and local officials against pastors and churches are becoming. It is as if these leaders never bothered to so much as glance at the Constitution they swore to uphold and defend. They seem to be governing from some make-believe, dystopian viewpoint.
Yesterday, we received a desperate call from a Kansas City, Missouri, church whose local government is reaching new and terrifying heights in destroying our constitutional freedom. The Kansas City government is now DEMANDING that churches turn over membership lists, along with the names, telephone numbers and physical addresses of anyone who enters a church! This order also applies to all businesses.
The new order states that by recording names and contact information, the health department will be able “to more quickly trace, test, and isolate individuals who may have been exposed to COVID-19.” Anyone who does not provide this information should be refused entrance!
The Germans did this very thing to Jews – collecting the names and locations of all known synagogue attendees - in the early days of the Nazi regime.

The Soviet Union used to register church members to track them too.
True.
Shameful.
My list would have one member with the name FU.
... should all be on the list.
Government official + 30’ lamppost + 10’ rope, some assembly required.
Every church member should “adopt” the name & address of aNY elected or volunteer Pol in the city...and use that for their own at church
the church I attend doesn’t really have membership rolls, other than people working with kids need a background check which I helped get instituted.
There are home bible studies so people in those know each other.
First, this would require you to provide an ID to church officials. You could say in a polite fashion....your name is Micky Mouse, and you live in the ‘Magic Kingdom’. When they ask for an ID, you respond that you are like many people in the nation...you have NO ID.
When the cop gets involved and he wants your full ID...you respond that you want his home address as well (which you aren’t going to get). Same story for the political figure making this a requirement.
If you don’t need an ID to vote, you don’t need an ID at the front door of a church.
LOL Good thinking!
They can just call the IRS and ask for their 501C-3 records. This is no big deal, compared to losing non-profit status!
This is from KANSAS!!!! This is not the Kansas I once knew!
The left is infiltrating states that we call "heartland". America has a cancer.
Be sure to demand membership roles of all Masonic lodges and witch covens.
This is ridiculous let’s say a member of a Church came down with this virus what is to say that did not contract it from their visit to Wal-Mart?
The city officials may not know of Mat Staver and Liberty Counsel not, but they will on Monday; and drop this nonsense.
Mat Staver and Liberty Counsel just don’t lose these types of cases.
Do not comply.
Yes.
I attend church in Kansas City Missouri.
We have not missed a Sunday.
We will not comply in anyway.
No. Kansas City, Missouri.
The insanity is unreal..........wanting citizens to register as church goers..covid tracking...yet they hand out drivers licenses, welfare, stimulus, without any ID documents or papers at all to illegals!
It is actually KCMO. But, valid point still.
