CHARLOTTE, N.C. (WBTV) - Mecklenburg County officials are warning leaders of a local church against hosting large event only a few months after hosting a super spreader event that left 12 dead and more than 200 infected from COVID-19.
Several people could be seen gathering today at The United House of Prayer in Charlotte ahead of a visit by Bishop CM Bailey at 8 p.m. Saturday.
Dozens of people are arriving here at the United House of Prayer for All People (UHOP) for what appears to be an event. I reached out to @MeckCounty about it and they said they are aware of events happening this weekend and have been in contact with church leadership. pic.twitter.com/SgjpaQHWQXâ Courtney Cole WBTV (@imcourtneyjcole) January 2, 2021
