A church filed a lawsuit against city officials Monday, alleging that they were unlawfully targeting their faith-based homeless ministry, according to the complaint.
Lawyers for an Ohio pastor who is facing nearly two dozen charges related to housing the homeless at his church sued city authorities and filed a motion for a temporary restraining order against them Monday.
“The church’s doors are always open, and it will not ask anyone to leave unless there is a biblically valid reason for doing so,” church officials said.
