A Worcester pastor who held a public church service last weekend contrary to the governor's executive order is planning to hold another one tomorrow.
"We're having church on Sunday," Pastor Kris Casey told New Boston Post.
Editor's Note: On Sunday, April 26, Pastor Kris Casey led a church service at Adams Square Baptist Church in Worcester, Massachusetts that drew, by his own count, 56 people — well more than the limit of 10 set by Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker in an executive order of March 23. The order applies to most public gatherings, including what it calls "faith-based events." It is intended to try to limit the spread of coronavirus.
The church took precautions, including taking the temperature of everybody at the entrance; offering hand sanitizer, masks, and gloves; requiring social distancing; and prohibiting physical contact.
