IL City Seeks to Make Christian Camp Demolish Bldgs.; In Retaliation for Opening Flooded Bldgs. during COVID

 An Illinois city is seeking to force a Christian campground to demolish most of the buildings on its property damaged by flooding, a request the ministry believes is retaliation for holding a revival event during the COVID-19 pandemic, The Christian Post website reports today(Sept. 28, 2023).


Chicago District Campground Association, also known as the Methodist Campground, filed a motion earlier this month to amend its pleadings in Cook County Circuit Court  in response to a lawsuit filed by the city of Des Plaines.


The campground, nestled on the banks  of the Des Plaines River was founded in the 1860s and throughout its history, has hosted several events and other Christian gatherings.
