Several Santa Clarita Valley churches are targeted for a Sunday, Feb. 22, protest by members of the notorious Westboro Baptist Church.
Westboro’s online “Picket Schedule” lists five churches with Sunday services the group plans to protest ahead of the Oscars next week — Saint Kateri Tekakwitha in Saugus; Grace Baptist Church in Saugus; St. Stephen’s Episcopal in Newhall; Santa Clarita United Methodist; and the Church on the Way.
Starting at 8 a.m., WBC posted its plans online to spend a half-hour at each church, and then begin protesting the Academy Awards ceremony at Dolby Theater in Los Angeles from 2:30-4:30 p.m.
The Topeka-based Westboro Baptist Church is considered a hate group by the Anti-Defamation League and the Southern Law Poverty Center, which tracks such activity.
WBC members frequently protest military funerals because they feel God is punishing the United States with war deaths because the nation supports homosexuality, as well as other views WBC members feel are immoral. WBC is not officially affiliated with any larger Baptist denomination.
According to a message on the WBC website:
“WBC will picket the St. Stephen’s Episcopal Dog Kennel with words of life and hope. There is nothing good to come from an Episcopal church, founded by and [sic] adulterer for the sole purpose of committing adultery. Hello?! NO ADULTERY!!
Rev. Kelly O’Connell, lead pastor for St. Stephens, sounded somewhat bemused by the news Thursday, when she found out the church was targeted by WBC members, who have never contacted St. Stephens directly, she said.
“(St. Stephen’s) reaction is, ‘Well, if we’ve gotten the notice of Westboro Baptist, then we’ must be doing something right,’” she said.
Church leader Fred Phelps Jr., son of the late founder.
The church’s communication team will be meeting to discuss any concerns and questions this week, she said, adding WBC’s planned appearance coincided with the church’s largest weekly service.
Her main concern was that parishioners feel safe and comfortable while attending their worship, she said, adding there wasn’t a lot of public property around the church’s main entrance, so access shouldn’t be an issue.
“We believe that Jesus expressed his love for everyone – so my question is how much time and energy do we put into this, in case no one shows up,” O’Connell said, adding she also was aware sometimes WBC announces protests that don’t materialize. “I actually have some serious doubts that anyone will show.”

David did u see this?
Wow I’m really surprised they aren’t picketing Real Life
I know… It’s an awesome fellowship and a big one from what I hear.
Maybe they are unaware that real life exists
The churches they are targeting have been around a lot longer
This is awesome! Don’t they have anything better to do then spread hate? And have hate speech ?
Bring it on.
Why are they doing this? Love the reaction from Rev. O’Connell though.
Who’s up for throwing some water balloons at these idiots?
And some stink bombs LOL
Fire em up!
And then we can be arrested instead of these losers? If we want to make a difference we need to show that we ARE the bigger people. Counter protesting is the way to go
Hi Taylor you classy girl you.
Sorry Taylor, but these people are beyond all reason and reprive. When you protest marine funerals and the victims of Sandy Hook, you deserve far worse than some water balloons.
Just go ask them some simple logical scientific questions and watch them lose their minds.

STINK BOMBS FOR SURE!!!!!!!!!

Filled with holy water!
Filled with holy water!
Don’t throw anything at them because you will have civil charges thrown out you with damages. If they can’t sue you, they sue then the establishment for protesting and then the city for not enough police protection. A bunch of members are attornies, that is how they make money.
Lol. Seriously these scumbags don’t belong here.

Daniel Ruppert don’t you wish you were here for this.
I’m gonna miss it D:
Message to Westboro Baptist Church…why don’t you help the homeless or something…isn’t that what Jesus would be doing…PS: go back where you haters came from
are you kidding me….
Hate and church shouldn’t be used together
First real thing here i have read.
i’m bringing tomatoes.
is this really happening ?
Aaron Reno Roz Reno – and i thought scv was boring. lol!
Hello? I’m waiting.
This isn’t funny. Get original.
Sorry!! NOT sorry!!!
Oh bring it on you whackjobs..i live between 2 of these churches so this shall be interesting! Although, i’m wondering why they are targeting SCV, kind of weird but then again they are weird. I will sit with my rainbow shirt on blasting “I kissed a girl and i liked it” with my 3 kids in tow!!! I ❤ my gays/lesbians and i’m straight as an arrow!!
Love it, you have to post a picture of that going down. :)
This is what happens when your husband goes out of town for the weekend! HA!
I must be nearby you
Sarah….lol I will meet you there!!!!
Horrible.
I never seen Santa Clarita have so much support. Speaking from My Wife and I,we also attend that church. My family has felt out of place since moving here 6 years ago. Thank you.
Omg just ban religion. .. geez
NO. NO. That is not the solution. Their are many evil people who try to make their bad look good. Investigate and weed out those bad apples and discard them.
lol, ban religion, good luck with something that can NEVER happen.
It’s a matter of a few years.I mean I’m in my late twenties and I remember being little and being openly gay was a huge NO! Look at it now, it’s legal to marry for our gay communities. Newer generations are being raised by my generation or even the generation after me and we’ve all developed into high tech and science people. It’s rare to see a 20-30 year old actually be part of a religion. Does it mean that we don’t believe in God? Absolutely not! It means we don’t follow man made organization that claim they can interpret the bible which for all we do know it was written by men that claimed God inspired them…
Agreed 100%
Sergio Alvarez Lauren Neville
I think these fanatics haven’t met the likes of my SCV brother’s and sisters yet! It will hopefully be met with the CITIZENS of SCV counter protesting, and scaring the Cr-p out of the Westboro nut jobs! Bring your megaphones, and blast that music on them! Car horns, or whatever it takes to make them get the heck out of SCV! This is our town! We welcome only peaceful good folks around here! Get the Bikers for Jesus up here! They know what to do!
Preach it!!
I’ll bring my 15″ sub!
Actually challenge them with scripture and good works. Let their own hate testify against them.
Peaceful…I like that. scaring the crap out of people — no bueno.

I am fascinated by the choice. Of all of the churches in SCV I would assume Real Life Church would be targeted as devil worshippers.
So what are the sane rational people doing in response? This could be fun! Does that make me sick and twisted?
Taken directly from their website I apologize for the name of their webpage I don’t like posting it myself. Makes me cringe

I hate these scum bag fundaMENTALIST
Go mess with them!!
“But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things!” http://bible.com/116/gal.5.22-23.nlt
Pepper spray……gallons of pepper spray
I didn’t know that GOD Hated anything!
Ugh! So annoying! We need to arrange a love party to show them how tolerance gets DOWN!
I’m confused, who exactly is picketing,? And why?
Westboro Baptist Church, and to answer your previous question, they’re basically a cult. Sick people for sure. Picketing certain churches I believe for supporting same sex couples.
Who: Freaks, Why: NO ONE knows why LOL
Thank you guys, and yeah I was pretty sure tht they were the cult church! Fuxking insane people!! Why the hell are they coming here, how pathetic are they!! I didn’t know they were that close to us, to travel all the way out here for a day. Sick bastards! I’m gonna drive by and throw oranges at them!
Anti-gay. Anti-everything.
http://www.godhatesfags.com/schedule.html?COLLCC=3574218280&
Isn’t Westboro baptist that cult ?
Pretty much, they are extremists.
Yep
Those are some crazy and disgusting people.
Sad.,very sad
Monique Lucas Michael Lucas
Maybe they will be struck by lightning on their way here.
Compassion and kindness.
What are the Churches? I would gladly be ready at the churches to show them what Santa Clarita is made of! We won’t take this sitting down! Who wants to protest against them with me because this is unacceptable behavior and they need to be punished for it!
Tiffany on this thread has the link of their schedule on Feb 22nd…this is crazy!
Peaceful counter-protest!!
Definitely peaceful but they can’t just get away with this
Is a fire hose peaceful enough? :)
http://www.godhatesfags.com/schedule.html?COLLCC=3574218280&
They will sue LAFD, then the churches insurance, then the city. You might not care who gets sued…. but LAFD and the church I doubt want to pay out.
I do care who gets sued. We wouldn’t get violent but we also should show that you can’t just go around and do this stuff.

Hate groups need to stay the efffff out of scv. We have enough problems without idiots trying to brainwash our youth
Hate groups need not exist at all! But I do think that our youth are in era now (unless raised by these people) where they think everyone should just be with who they love…gender not an issue. So, I don’t think we need to worry about any brainwashing
I wish I can agree. I feel that most parents and friends of teens can raise their kids to come to that conclusion on their own yet I find there are youth in this world who will listen to the trash that hate mongers are spewing because they either a) don’t want to piss off their parents or b) are forced to believe what those hate spreading idiots are trying to sell. Idiots that spew hate target vulnerable teens and young adults with their bs “youth groups”. It’s scary to think these morons are coming to our town to preach. I guess what I mean is lock up your daughters and lock up your sons since the idiot convention will be here. :)
THERE’S ENOUGH HATE IN THIS WORLD AND NOW THIS Hate Church THAT IS SO WRONG IN MANY WAYS THIS SO MESS UP
Nancy Moreno RUN!!!!!
The protesters all need to get a life. Pathetic people that they are.
This pretty much sums them up.
No joke!
And they look eerily like that too!!! LOL
And they look eerily like that too!!! LOL
Hahahahahahahaha!
Lmao
So wrong lol
I sell pepper spray. Just sayin’
Yeah im legitimately scared of catching stupid from them.
Lol I think that kind of stupidity has to be brainwashed into you over a long period of time.
Lol I think that kind of stupidity has to be brainwashed into you over a long period of time.
But beware…the likes of these people might press charges in the form of abuse/battery as a “hate crime.” How ironic would that be???
They sue the city for not enough police protection.
Oh yes, they are complete morons but smart in the legal department. They’d never touch or threaten anyone with physical harm (unless burning in hell counts).
Half of Westborough, they are attornies. No kidding look it up.
WB in the SCV. Shaken not stirred. This outta be good.
i want to make a god hates kanye sign and join them hahaha
F U C K…………OFF!!!!!
Jason Townsend
Absolutely disgusting.
God doesn’t hate anyone. Except for these folks…pretty sure he hates them.
Randy…just sharing
I am a bible thumper evangelist and what/how they protest is not ok. Jesus also says you will know it’s fruit by it’s tree. God bless everyone.
Amen!
Where do I report and time should I be there? I am ambidextrous and would enjoy throwing water balloons at WBC members who protest here in SC. I feel sorry for small minded people. We need to stand together against these haters.
It’s happening ..
Martin Ramos
They want attention. Just completely ignore them and eventually they’ll feel like they’re wasting their time and go away. Think about it, if nobody even looks at them they’ll get bored and go home.
These people are whacked. Who are they to pass judgement on anyone? Only God reserves that right. Two words for them…More Ons….
they are more then a more on’s we need god more then ever now we need to stand together as one and fight for god and jesus and i am jewish
Sad
The whole point of God is love these people are crazy
Throwing projectiles i.e. tomatoes, water balloons may be construed as “Battery” in the state of California. Be careful. These scumbags thrive on lawsuits and they win. The matriarch is a lawyer. Go to youtube.com and type Westboro Baptist Church.
I just basically said this under someone that wants to throw water balloons at that them…and that might press assault/battery charges under a “hate crime.” Wouldn’t that be a little ironic?
That is how they make their living, they sue for not enough police protection. So they sue city and depending on the establishment sue that too.
Tammie Rose JT Rose apparently they’ll be at St. Kateri
Really!!!!? Gaross!
If they do or do not believe in God, they will get their reward when they leave this earth and meet Him face to face. No if, ands or buts. May he have pity on your soul.
lame
Are these idiots followers of Tony Alamo? Throw them all in jail alongside with him.
I usually don’t hate on anyone… but… after learning about them, watching documentaries, and learning about “their bible”… my blood just boils.
I want them out of our beautiful community. I’m ready to kick them out of our town. I’m ready to picket them out of town.
Please tell me someone is starting a picketing to picket them out. I’m ready. Sign me up.
haha Sara Raye Raza…I’ll be right next to you
Ooooooo I’m so going to church this Sunday. Thanks.
Oh look the attention whores are back… it was a good run not hearing about their asses for a while… now they hunger for fame again.. fml

are there any ‘ pickets’ by citizen against this ignorant group?? I’m Jewish and this group shouldn’t be allowed to spill filth ANYWHERE or at least televise their ignorance.
Haha I think it’s time that celebrities put their money where their mouth is. For every protestor their should be a donation to a LGBT OR military charity. I would say 1000 a head. Which person out there wants to do that?
Also, I can’t wait to
See these guys. I should get their autographs!!!!
Janine Elise Harris awareness & Tyler Gregory thought you’d like to know about this if you didn’t already
Although I wouldn’t mind if an errant, out of control truck found it’s way through this crowd of inbred hypocrites the best thing to do is give them no notice, no press, nothing to suggest they exist.
Frank, I think we would all agree. The best way to promote something is to recognize it and publicize it. Ignore it and it will usually go away.
Bring it on Westbrook baptist. We will be ready.
God only dislikes false prophets
Here’s some pure delusion for you, from their website:
The Church on the Way in Santa Clarita, CA February 22, 2015 11:00 AM – 11:30 AM
It’s always a bad sign when a group calling themselves a church of God seeks donations. It’s an even worse sign when that group has female “pastors”.
This passage is very clear:
1Ti 2:9-14 In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works. Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence. For Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression. Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.
Any person who has the smallest desire to serve God should RUN, not walk, away from this house of satan. Those who seek to serve God, seek to obey His commandments. All of his commandments, not just the ones convenient to you.
Joh 14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.
“christians” refusing to obey the simple commandments of God have led this nation to accepting fag marriage. The Church on the Way caused fag marriage and each member will be held accountable.
GOD WILL NOT HAVE FAG MARRIAGE!!!
suit up its clobbering time.
This is so sad to read all these comments lil do these ignorant people know that they aren’t rejecting them or telling them of there doing it to god so sad than they wonder why so much crime why so dangerous cuz people wanna ignore the fact that theirs a god
They make my skin crawl!!
Cant wait to say these words to them, “youre the load your mother should have swallowed” and then we do a dance off via guardians of the galaxy
These people need to get a life. Preaching to be forgivers and non judge mental and to love is NOT to turn around and “judge” others for getting a divorce and remarried. So controlling and sickening!! Oh and Leo Gonzalez, truth!!
This will be a pre comic con workout for me! They were there last year
These people are psychos …
Kyle Edward Harris the circus is coming to town
Feel free to join the protest at Saint Kateri Tekawitha. Let’s bring PEACE during this time of hate.
Maria are you defending Westboro?
I’m sorry, but so many of you are responding to this in the exact way that the people of Westboro want you to. They clearly want their voices heard and their name to be known, so the easiest solution to their protesting is to completely ignore them. If they see people responding with rage and fighting back, they will know they have won because they got in your heads. I can’t say I know the Bible from beginning to end, but I do know some things stated in Romans 2 that may help you in understanding where I am coming from. “You, therefore, have no excuse, you who pass judgment on someone else, for at whatever point you judge another, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do the same things.” So, if you are continuously judging others for not being perfect and not loving God in the same way that you do, you are only judging yourself in the same that they are. Much love.
And the nutcases come to town
Aren’t there better things to do, in Santa Clarita than this? I just moved here. If they DON’T like something why not pray about it ? EMBARRASSING I say
#wbcnotwelcomeinscv
So just so I have this right….. A baptist church is going to picket other church’s with unkind, mean spirited and messages of hate? Really? That does not sound like “church” activity….. I am go to pray for those who attend and minister at the Westboro Baptist Church. Something has gone HORRIBLY off track for these folks.
http://www.godhatesfags.com/schedule.html?COLLCC=3574218280&
Like I said
It has gone horribly off track…..
Hate is not a Christian attitude
I’ll pray for you too.
These people are no diferente than those “Extreme Muslims”. I’m “born again” alive and active but with a councious that equals = common sense and a heart that equals = compasion. Let G-d always be the judge.
-Tony The Messenger
God hates sin…
And sinners! See Romans 9:15; Psalm 5:5 and so much more of God’s word. Gandhi coined your lie, NOT God! What burns in hell? Sin or some clump of sins? Don’t check your brains at the door! Read the words and obey God!
We do not need to talk with the devil to know he is up to mischief. Just ask the woman that calls herself a pastor (God hates women preachers) – are there divorced and remarried people in that so-called church?
Our Lord Jesus Christ said two things about that – Luke 16:18 – if you divorce and remarry, you are living in adultery and if you marry someone that is divorced, you are living in adultery. He also said many times – THOU SHALT NOT COMMIT ADULTERY! Malachi 2 says that God HATES divorce – yes it says just that! Stop being Bible dumb and rebellious, and read the words and hush up! California is getting her back-side handed to her, and you foolish rebels refuse to connect the dots!
Paul said – it is for your proud sin that the wrath of God comes upon and abides upon the children of disobedience! Your destruction is imminent and you don’t even see the slaughter hand coming a you! :(
PS – God will NEVER have same-sex marriage!
Follow @wbcsaysrepent for more word of God from Westboro Baptist Church. :)
LOL…..Religion.
He that doesn’t love, doesn’t know God. For God is Love. – 1 John 4:8
Whoever says he is in the light and hates his brother is still in darkness.
1 John 2:9
They profess to know God, but they deny him by their works. They are detestable, disobedient, unfit for any good work. Titus 1:16
Therefore you have no excuse, O man, every one of you who judges. For in passing judgment on another you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, practice the very same things. We know that the judgment of God rightly falls on those who practice such things. Do you suppose, O man—you who judge those who practice such things and yet do them yourself—that you will escape the judgment of God?
Romans 2:1-5
“‘I know your works, your toil and your patient endurance, and how you cannot bear with those who are evil, but have tested those who call themselves apostles and are not, and found them to be false. – Rev 2;2
Wait…..so a church is going to protest…..another church????
Get real. do something more productive with your damn time.
Believe it – God loves these people too. Perhaps
He wants us to show them that by our response.
Prayers and Blessings instead of reaction in the
same manner as theirs. A hateful response to them
proves their conduct is valid. Silence, prayer and
Blessings are God’s ways. Peace, not violence.
Hateful a–holes.
Proverbs 6:16-19New International Version (NIV)
16 There are six things the Lord hates,
seven that are detestable to him:
17 haughty eyes,
a lying tongue,
hands that shed innocent blood,
18 a heart that devises wicked schemes,
feet that are quick to rush into evil,
19 a false witness who pours out lies
and a person who stirs up conflict in the community.
Hmmm I don’t think they’re reading it right.
Oh my, they are evil. It’s amazing they don’t target us Jews. Or, maybe we’re next. I’m sorry this is happening to your churches…my dear, precious neighbors go to one of those churches. They are the most wonderful, g-d fearing an loving, people I know.
look at the picture showing the star of David we all need to stand together as one now there is to much hate in world and it is very sad to see this i was shocked to see this i am Jewish Vietnam veteran and all we what is peace in the world and god is love
Paintball snipers ready?
Praying for them.
Maybe they could come feed the homeless
Apparently. These people have never heard” judge not lest he be judged”. Sad
right? such a waste of time and space.
I’ll bring my pa and blast some slayer… westburo is gonna love some slayer.
Some Haunting the Chapel, dead Skin Mask and South of Heaven!! Let’s do this!! I’ve always wanted to go up against those Westboro people!!!

I am sadden by this group that attacks the body of Christ and the negative Christian witness that non-christians are seeing because of them. I am also VERY concerned (based on many of the comments already posted here) that the response to them will be seen by the non-christian community as being just as hate filled as that of the protestors. I hope our response will bring honor to Jesus.
My thoughts exactly Bill. We must show the protestors Christian love back. Do any of you really think that hating this group and not showing them love will solve anything?
They are hate mongers…they won’t listen to reason.
The saddest part about all this is the battle between believers and believers when the battles as Christians we are to fight are against the enemy Satan not each other. I do know my Bible and it clearly says that we are to love one another as Jesus Christ loves us. All this Truly breaks my heart, but the bible does say that all of this would come to pass before he came back for us in book of Revelations. I will pray for peace & clarity to come from all those involved & for God to have mercy on them, for they know not what they do. Amen
Judge not lest you be judged….they don’t get that!
Your Pastor vs. WBC …battle of the bible versus.
Please do not bring tomatoes or paint balls or anger. Bring love. Bring a song. Bring peace in your heart and the love of the Lord. Only love can conquer hate. If we smile at them and wish them peace, we win. If we are angry, they win.
Calling all PGR.
Question, A Church is considered a private institution ? Can they really come on the grounds and protest while services are happening? Don’t we as parishioners have the right to block them from stepping onto the grounds of private property? Anybody in law enforcement know or lawyering know ? They can’t ruin services for every Church in the SCV. This could unite all the different Churches to be one for peace and respect for the freedom of Religion.

I highly dislike religious fanatics.
Didn’t see any today Danni McCall!
The crazies will be there next weekend
What a photo op! Holding a sign that says “Fags doom nations” Classy. The good news is that all people disgusted by that fool are not him or have his decrepit mind.
Please do not stoop to the WBC’s level by bringing megaphones or projectiles. They can’t help the hateful beliefs with which they were raised, though I pray that they will learn the love and forgiveness that Christ taught.
Attend the service at whichever of the target churches you prefer to attend at the time WBC plans to be there. Show them that we are stronger than they are both in numbers and in faith. If your place of worship isn’t one of the churches WBC is targeting, attend your service as you normally would and come to one of the churches targeted to lend your support and worship with us.
I’ll be at St. Stephen’s for the 10 AM service as I am most Sundays. All are welcome — yes even WBC members — to come and worship as we begin the observance of the Lenten season. We’ve been the target of demonstrations before. We survived and stood strong. We’ll stand proudly for our faith and our beliefs this time also.
