PASTOR ARRESTED FOR NAME OF CHURCH, GOES ON HUNGER STRIKE


Seventh-Day Adventist Church Has Pastor Jailed, Church Members Soon to Follow On July 15th, Pastor Walter "Chick" McGill of the Creation Seventh Day Adventist Church will be turning himself into the custody of the U.S. Marshals service on the Loma Linda University grounds in Loma Linda, CA in response to a Federal warrant for his arrest. He has vowed to fast from solid foods during his incarceration. He is wanted for contempt of court stemming from a lawsuit initiated by the Seventh-day Adventist Church over the name of his church, claiming trademark infringement. Pastor McGill has refused to change the name of his church, declaring that the name is God-given with its use required by the religion; a view that the Seventh-day Adventist church also subscribes to, at least on paper. The denomination, normally seen as a champion of religious liberty, has requested the arrest of Pastor McGill and other church members to force compliance. Several news agencies are expected to cover the event, including a brief press conference beforehand. ### Pastor McGill may be contacted directly via email at csda_academy@yahoo.com until Friday, July 13th. If you would like more information - including references to prior coverage of the lawsuit by ABC 7 and various periodicals please contact Lucan Chartier at (731) 607-9546 and leave a message. You may contact Lucan via email at claimvictory@hotmail.com
