South Side Churches Praising President Trump's Call For Churches To Reopen, Plan To Hold Services SundaySome South Side religious leaders are praising President Donald Trump's call to allow churches to reopen and say they want Gov. JB Pritzker and Mayor Lori Lightfoot to move past politics and do the same.
Mayor Lori Lightfoot Plans To Fine Churches That Defied Stay-At-Home Order Rules To Hold Sunday Services“Certainly there were some churches that congregated in excess of the allowable number, and we will be taking action as to those individuals and those churches,” Lightfoot said at an unrelated event Monday morning.
Mayor Lori Lightfoot Prepared To Take Action If Churches Defy Stay-At-Home Order On Sunday; 'These Measures Are Not Arbitrary'“We hope that leaders of the faith community are going to be smart and sensible, and recognize obviously people are following them, and hope that they lead their congregations and their flocks in a way that is consistent with the public health guidelines," Mayor Lightfoot said.
