My church like many in suburban NC were closed for nearly a year. They reopened forcing masks. I would feel like a satanist going to a service in a mask. I voiced my opinion to the pastor, he is a new pastor and seems liberal. My church was conservative. So I went on a mission and found a church that had mask free service. They do have a mask only service to in order to cater to those members. They are conservative and strictly Biblical, like all churches should be.
Any way, I went to the service it was amazing. It was contemporary style, but, Bible focused. There was nobody in a mask in site. People shaking hands, smiling and hugging. This church started back up last June and they somehow aren't all dead, lol. What a liberating feeling it was too attend.
I went alone to check it out, I will bring my family back this Sunday. This church is not a major denomination aligns itself with a small group of similar churches. My advice is to get away from the large denominations, they are likely controlled just like the catholic church.
Thank you so much for sharing! I'm happy you found a new church that doesn't require masks!! Bless you.
