McClure did not respond to requests for an interview.
Worshipping with him was Tim Glass, head pastor of Calvary Chapel Manteca. Each and every person here, not just the senior pastor, but each and every single person in here says, Hey, this is important enough to me and my faith. And to go out and to know, Hey, I don t think there s a risk here, Glass said.
Glass said he wanted to show support for McClure, even though Glass said he s holding his services in Manteca in a tent outside his church.
McClure already has been slapped with hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines after defying the county s health order by holding indoor services with hundreds in attendance, many of whom were not wearing masks or social distancing.
