Rest assured, the only reason i am bringing this up at all is because these malfeasant men have cited State Mandates as their reason for harassing me, and subsequently assaulting me. Some people have such audacity. Thus, it behooves me to expose the hypocrisy intended to deceive the church and the state.
Additionally, a pattern has begun to emerge; repeated in their allegations against me concerning who assaulted who. Fact is, i was not agressive, nor did i levy even a single defensive strije against them, let alone an offensive assault. It simply did not happen.
As crazy as the situation may seem, i was violently assaulted while in the line of duty and service to the kinder and kind in Christ. As i entered a church-house, of all places. It is not as though i was at the biker bar, or walking the streets at 3am.
If those men were mature in Christ, this would not have happened.
If that were exercising some critical thinking skills, basic common sense, and self control... this would not have happened.
The assailants wrongly accuse me of violating state mandates concerning covid, in an attempt to justify their harassment of me. Yet, it was i who was in full compliance with covid State Mandates from the moment I walked out of the washrooms until sometime during the attack against me.
As is all too typical, it was the accuser who was doing the dirty deed.
e.g.
1)Assailants failed to maintain a safe distance between themselves, and away form this guest;
2)The two maskless gentleman exiting small office as i headed to washroom’;
3)Van Dyke wearing mask below nose while face to face with me, within 18”;
4)Person leading service was not wearing a mask.
5)Violist and pianist, both without mask, sitting within six feet from one another.
The cast iron pot
calling the copper kettle black.
In a misguided attempt
to justify their initial harassment
and their subsequent assault,
they have accused me of not following state mandates.
By my count, IBC leadership,
and these two assailants,
together violated state mandates
not less than five times.
Admittedly,
when i first entered the building,
my own mask was in my left hand
as i headed straight to washrooms
where i properly affixed mask to face; where it remained until
it was ripped off during the attack.
This was the only time any can rightly say that i was in violation of state mandates. Period.
While on my way to washrooms, I noticed two maskless men leave a little office together, shoulder to shoulder, putting me at ease.
‘All organizations must adhere to physical distancing requirements and have six feet of space between workstations or have physical barriers between them.’

Upon exiting the washroom and turning left back toward entrance, Vandayke approached me within three (3) feet. Within minutes, the gap closed
to eighteen inches.
Then they assaulted me.
‘Organizations are strongly encouraged to keep a log of attendees at each service or counseling session, and to retain that log for at least two weeks. If an outbreak occurs, this information may be critical to help save lives.’

The face covering requirement does apply to individual(s) leading the service and others who speak during any live service.

”Do not become teachers in large numbers, my brothers, since you know that we who are teacherswill incur a stricter judgment.”
-James 3:1
Music – No choir shall perform during the service. Congregational singing is permitted, but individuals must not remove their face coverings to sing – it must stay on for the duration of the service. Soloist musical performances are permitted so long as the performer wears a face covering. In the event the soloist is performing on a woodwind or brass instrument, the soloist may remove their face covering only during the performance. Musical performances that include a soloist and piano accompanist are permitted, but musical performances of more than two individuals are prohibited.
