Today in Lancaster city, home of our Veritas Community, there was a suspicious package found in the Lancaster Public Library as well as multiple bomb threats sent to Lancaster city police. The package and the multiple bomb threats were, no doubt, related to the planned Drag Queen Story Hour at the Lancaster Public Library. As this has taken place in the community where many within the Veritas Community live, where we gather for worship, and where God has sent us to be a blessing, we feel that we need to make a brief statement about these happenings in Lancaster today. No matter where you stand on the idea of a Drag Queen Story Hour, as followers of Jesus, there is no place for violence and hatred. Our Veritas Community strongly opposes and condemns violence and threats of violence.
