IRVINE, Calif.—Since California Gov. Gavin Newsom announced earlier this month that churches must again close their doors, many have taken their services outdoors. But not all pastors are happy with that solution, and they’re continuing the outcry that has rang out for much of the pandemic against limits on worship.
Pastor Matt Jones of Del Rey Church in Los Angeles County told The Epoch Times he has been holding service outdoors on the church’s property. But it’s in a residential area and he worries that the noise on Sunday mornings might bother non-Christian residents.
