CHURCH: Shalt not trespass

| June 24, 2016 9:00 AM

St. Marks Lutheran Church in Hayden doesn’t seem to love their neighbors as they do themselves Matt 22:39. Having purchased the lot from the church, we were saddened to hear that the access we have used for 21 years may be denied to a future owner. We are not coveting our neighbor’s property Ex20:17. We are only asking for guaranteed access, so a new owner can enjoy the shop in the backyard. Our request was denied (by a Realtor who appears to represent the church). So it seems that all are welcome to enter the church, but not pass through the parking lot.
