At church Sunday, I wasn't aware, but Mecklenburg county has a mask mandate that "extends to places of worship". I haven't lived here too long...but I would think that's an overreach? I still walk in most places free anyway or refuse to patron the establishment...but church is a must and I refuse to worship with covered face.
Are there any churches in the area that are reasonable?
FWIW, Section 13 of the NC constitution states:
Pretty clear IMO that the state maybe can ask churches, but they can't enforce that upon me, per my conscience.
