KITCHENER Trinity Bible Chapel must provide proof of a COVID-19 safety plan to the Ontario government before its doors will be unlocked, a Kitchener judge has ruled. On Tuesday, the same Kitchener judge, Justice John Krawchenko, ruled indoor services may resume at Trinity Bible Chapel under Step 3 of the province s reopening plan and under certain circumstances. To be clear, the respondents shall provide a copy of their safety plan, which is required by law to the applicant, prepared in accordance with this regulation, and provide proof of its posting at the church, at which point the applicant shall cause the locks to be changed to allow the reopening of the church, Krawchenko said at a Zoom hearing.

KITCHENER The doors of Trinity Bible Chapel near St. Jacobs remain closed. An injunction was issued at the end of April to lock the church after it violated several pandemic restrictions. That injunction was extended on May 7. On Friday, a virtual hearing was held but the lawyer representing the church tells CTV News the judge has not yet released their decision whether to allow the church to reopen. Under Step 3 of the province’s reopening plan, churches and places of worship can hold religious services as long as they follow public health protocols.
