Temple Baptist Church Attendees Ticketed At Drive-In Service In Mississippi

Mississippi church attendees received tickets for attending a drive-in prayer service, after police in Greenville, Mississippi, enforced the state’s Shelter in Place order.

Pastor Arthur Scott of Temple Baptist Church told the “Todd Starnes Radio Show” that he was astonished by the police department and the mayor’s office actions. 

Scott said,

“One of the police officers said the mayor wanted to make an example of our church. I told them to get some more tickets ready because we will be preaching Sunday morning and Sunday night.”
