What's the update?
A (1:42)
Well, so Monday we go before the judge and we. We had an emergency temporary restraining order put upon us by a previous judge. The second judge, we papered the first one because he was political and predictable. The second judge ruled that we were in contempt, fined us, and the order stands. So every time we're open, every violation's another set of fines. So we're accumulating it because we've refused to close. And we're being brought before the judge this Monday. And I don't know what they're going to do. There could be jail time. There could be an increase in fines. I have no idea. But this is the state of the church in America. We've been wide open. No masks, no social distancing in violation of the governor's I can't say it's a codified law. He's put this out there, but this isn't lawful and we've been in violation of it. And here's what's interesting. We haven't had one case of COVID been wide open since May 31st. No masks, no social distancing. We've got ionization machines and UV lights in our air ducts and hand sanitizer. But you can't worship with a mask on your face six feet apart and have fellowship. And so the church is open because the church is essential and that's where we stand.
