Prayer Event Becomes ‘Worship Protest’ After Seattle Barricades Christians Out CBN/ANDREA MORRIS
The Christian community refused to let city officials in Seattle, Washington, shut down a Labor Day worship event organized by “Hold the Line” founder Sean Feucht.
In a video posted on Twitter, Feucht said, “The city decided to barricade the entire park for our peaceful worship and prayer gathering.”
We’re calling tonight a “Worship Protest” for legal reasons. 🤣
See ya in the streets next to GasWorks Park!

So the event became a “worship protest” and was moved into the street near Gas Works Park.
Seattle Parks and Recreation closed the area on Sept. 4, citing that the decision was “due to anticipated crowding that could impact the public health of residents.”
Feucht told CBN News that the worship protest was still powerful and “the Spirit of God moved.”
“The Lord called me to declare that this is a new Jesus People movement,” he added, saying that the restrictions imposed by politicians “are only making the church stronger.”
Feucht told Fox News on Tuesday that “it was obviously a targeting and discrimination towards believers in the city.”
“There’s just a bias,” he added. “You know, it’s the height of hypocrisy right now that they’re letting these cities, you know, succumb to rioting and burning and pillaging and yet they’re targeting Christians.”
