Drive-in religious services were held for the church’s members on Christmas Eve and Sunday morning. Volunteers guided dozens of vehicles to parking spots in the church’s lot in the west end. Rock’s sermons were streamed online, with no attendees exiting their vehicles.
But Rock said the drive-in services were only held because Windsor police have forbid him and his followers from entering the church after charging him under the Reopening Ontario Act for an in-person service held in the building on Dec. 20.
“Of course, I haven’t changed my view. I’ve been thrown over a barrel by the police department,” said Rock, 47.
