Master’s Seminary Pastor Jailed

It was only a matter of time. The pastor of a Bible church has been imprisoned for going against covid restrictions by presiding over his church during corporate worship.

Pastor James Coates of Grace Life Church in Spruce Grove, Alberta was jailed this past Tuesday. As of February 17th, he remains imprisoned with a possible trial date to be set next week sometime.
