Hazzard: Barring unvaccinated worshippers from churches not part of the roadmap

NSW Health Minister Brad Hazzard has denied churches will be forced to turn away unvaccinated worshippers under the state’s roadmap out of COVID-19 lockdowns.
Churches and places will be allowed to reopen subject to the one person per four square metre rule once 70 per cent of eligible residents are fully vaccinated.
Despite the roadmap specifically affording freedoms to only those who are fully vaccinated, Minister Hazzard says he does not think prohibiting entry to the unvaccinated is “part of the arrangements”.
“I need to actually look at where we’re at by the time we get there as to whether that’s going to be a requirement that they be turned away,” he said.
“I don’t think that is currently part of the arrangements but I’ll have a chat to (Archbishop) Anthony Fisher or whoever it may be asking that question.
“Anthony texts me regularly or calls me so sure I’ll have a talk to the Archbishop about that.”
NSW firm on church vaccination requirement despite exemption push

According to the WA Today, Health Minister Brad Hazzard is standing firm behind plans to require churchgoers to show proof of vaccination when NSW reopens, despite religious leaders pushing for an exemption on the grounds no one should be turned away from church.
Catholic Archbishop of Sydney Anthony Fisher, Anglican Archbishop of Sydney Kanishka Raffel and other faith leaders are lobbying Mr Hazzard directly on the issue, and some ministers have publicly contemplated civil disobedience if the government keeps the requirement.
Archbishop Fisher said he and other religious leaders had told the government worship was “an essential service, not mere recreation” for many people.
The road map announced last week allows places of worship to reopen to vaccinated people with capacity limited to one person per four square metre rule, once 70 per cent of NSW adults are fully vaccinated, estimated to be around the middle of October. Singing will not be allowed.
The government has not clarified what will happen at 80 per cent double dose vaccination.

‘Stand up and say no’: Churches fight government over vaccine mandate
Health Minister Brad Hazzard is standing firm behind plans to require churchgoers to show proof of vaccination when NSW reopens, despite religious leaders pushing for an exemption on the grounds no one should be turned away from church.
Catholic Archbishop of Sydney Anthony Fisher, Anglican Archbishop of Sydney Kanishka Raffel and other faith leaders are lobbying Mr Hazzard directly on the issue, and some ministers have publicly contemplated civil disobedience if the government keeps the requirement.
“Churches have a responsibility to minister to all, regardless of immunisation status, so we will be discussing with government how we can fulfil that ministry commitment in future stages of the recovery,” Archbishop Raffel told The Sun-Herald. “We want everybody to be safe at church, but we also want to make sure we minister to everybody.”
The Catholic Archbishop of Sydney Anthony Fisher said he and other religious leaders had told the government worship was “an essential service, not mere recreation” for many people.
“We explained that all our faiths are inclined to allow all comers to worship, that many pastors and faithful would be uneasy with restricting worship to the fully vaccinated, and that doing so could prove very divisive,” he said.
The road map announced last week allows places of worship to reopen to vaccinated people with capacity limited to one person per four square metre rule, once 70 per cent of NSW adults are fully vaccinated, estimated to be around the middle of October. Singing will not be allowed.
The government has not clarified what will happen at 80 per cent double dose vaccination.
Last week before the road map was announced, Phil Colgan, minister at St George North Anglican Church, told The Pastor’s Heart podcast he could not imagine a scenario in which he would turn away parishioners who weren’t vaccinated.
I guess we’ll see in a few weeks… This is the same government who is currently wanting a 4 sq m rule and NO singing?

They do not want to go too far to cause the Australian people to revolt but in general the Australian response has been the most Dystopian response in the world. The Australian people really need to revolt against what their government is doing. I would drag those Australian leaders out into the street and beat them down to set an example of what happens to traitors against the Australian people but the Australians are going to have to decide what to do about their government. If they act like slaves then they are slaves.

2006 – “Secret FEMA Plan To Use Pastors as Pacifiers in Preparation For Martial Law”
A Pastor has come forward to blow the whistle on a nationwide FEMA program which is training Pastors and other religious representatives to become secret police enforcers who teach their congregations to “obey the government” in preparation for a declaration of martial law, property and firearm seizures, and forced relocation.
The FEMA directors told the Pastors that attended that it was their job to help implement FEMA and Homeland Security directives in anticipation of any of these eventualities. The first directive was for Pastors to preach to their congregations Romans 13, the often taken out of context bible passage that was used by Hitler to hoodwink Christians into supporting him, in order to teach them to “obey the government” when martial law is declared.
We have received confirmation from other preachers and Pastors that this program is a nationwide initiative and a literal Soviet model whereby the churches are being systematically infiltrated by government volunteers and used as conduits for martial law training and conditioning. The Pastor was told that over 1,300 counties were already on board.
Pastor Revere outlined the plan to carry out mass vaccination and enforced drugging programs in times of crisis such as a bird flu outbreak.
“In the event of an outbreak or a bio-terrorist attack, there’d be a mass vaccination….they have a program nationwide ‘Pills in People’s Palm In 48 Hours’,” said the Pastor who was told that Walmart had been designated as the central outlet of this procedure.
