Yesterday, a Mississippi Pentecostal church was burned to the ground after it had been trying to open services amid the state’s coronavirus lockdown. The fire is being investigated by police as a suspected arson attack.
First Pentecostal filed a lawsuit last month against the city over its public health order on in-person worship services, the station reported.
