Petition Action

Open the UK Christian Churches for Sunday Worship

Petition Details

Let Christians meet anywhere on Sunday to worship God. We are commanded to meet physically together on this day to praise, pray, and hear the word of God. The right to worship freely is a cornerstone of English liberty and democracy and should never be relinquished in the name of health & safety.

Additional Information

It is beyond the powers of a liberal democratic government to bar citizens from meeting together for religious worship. End the indefinite and expansive emergency powers given to the UK Government from this Covid-19 pandemic, which deny our basic human rights to worship God.
