Within the last few months Pastor James Coates of Grace Life Church in Canada was placed in jail, due to COVID restrictions.
He was released a few weeks ago.
Canadian police attempted to disrupt the service of the church on resurrection Sunday, but were politely denied access by the elders of the church.
Last week the building of the church was placed in prison, when police officials erected a fence around the building.
However, this congregation still found a place to meet last Sunday.
In my state of North Carolina the governor shut down many churches last year due to COVID restrictions, but a Federal judge later determined that Governor Roy Cooper had violated the law.
This same governor also ordered pharmacies not to fill prescriptions for Hydroxychloroquine, which had been prescribed by physicians. We may never know how many people died as a result of this interference in the doctor-patient relationship.
We need to pray for those in persecuted churches, as well as all of our churches.
The persecution has now come to Canada.

Thank God for this man.
