No Room in the Inn (School)

This morning the US Supreme Court announced its decision not to review a court ruling that upheld the NYC Department of Education’s policy of refusing to rent public school facilities to religious groups for the purpose of conducting worship services. This means that around sixty congregations in New York City will have to find new places to worship by Sunday, February 19, 2012. Among these churches is our sister QPC congregation, Grace Fellowship Church, that has been meeting at PS 150 in Sunnyside, and at least four other churches in our denominational network. Let’s be in prayer for these congregations to be able to find places to worship. To read a newspaper article about the court’s decision click here.
