If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you. John 15:18
"A California evangelical church is being forced to sell its property due to a city ordinance that prohibits houses of worship from
occupying the first floor of downtown buildings.
A federal court in the San Francisco Bay Area recently sided with the city of Salinas, ruling that churches generate limited interest, do not draw tourists, and therefore detract from the city's goals of vibrancy, said the Pacific Justice Institute, which filed a lawsuit on behalf of New Harvest Christian Fellowship.
New Harvest Christian Fellowship, which has rented space along Main Street in Salinas for more than 25 years, bought the building in early 2018 because its congregation outgrew a previously rented space."
