No more Bible study! Beaumont, Texas’ men and women in blue have been told they can no longer hold a voluntary Bible study during lunch at the police station. After meeting like this for years, with no complaints, the City of Beaumont has demanded that the officers stop.
A pre-suit letter, which is required by the Texas Religious Freedom Restoration Act, is being sent to the city stating that the officers’ religious rights have been infringed upon.
Sargent Burt Moore, who helped found the Faith and Fellowship Bible study, pointed out that the City Council prays before its meetings and the police station will start an event with prayer as well.
He also said that there is a chaplain program which still meets at the station. The study he says has a diverse group of faiths and ethnicities coming together for the study and believes the City is “unfairly targeting us.”

Keep having your Bible study Texas….no one can force you to stop!!
What Gives With Beaumont Are The Anti Christian Now ? Dan Patrick, Greg Abbott, Ken Paxton This Needs To Get Looked Into.
Can’t control what they do while off duty.
The good Lord says different. Keep praying.
If no more Bible study then no more Muslim pray.?
I don’t believe this, your Sherrif would not alow this.
They have no authority over an off duty officer. Would they tell them to stop attending church?
if this is on their own time,then we are on the way of becoming the IMPERIAL SOCIALIST STATES of AMERICA.
Though I do not agree with it, it does bring in the fact that Muslims will want to have a mosque room to pray in also. Therefore, I agree with their decision due to the fact that Muslims are inserting their religion into our daily lives. No Muslim will pray on the clock either.
