(Worthy News) – A couple in Pennsylvania has been served a cease-and-desist order for using their 32-acre farm for private prayer groups.
Scott and Terri Fetterolf received the order in 2017 after the Borough of Sewickley Heights in Pennsylvania claimed the farm “was being used improperly as a place of worship, a place of assembly and as a commercial venue and ‘special studio or school.’”
The borough is charging $500 for each permit if the couple wants to continue hosting activities at their farm. [ Source: Christian Headlines (Read More…) ]
