Church Booted Out of Elementary School for Flier

The Rev. Dave Nelson just wanted to talk about sex. And porn. And homosexuality.

But he won’t be doing it at Nash Elementary School.

The Great Lakes Church, a new church which has rented space at Nash for four weeks, lost its permit late last week after sending a colorful flier that proclaimed, “Thank God for Sex.”

The flip side listed Nash as the location for the service, and a series of topics scheduled over the next five weeks, including:

— Great Sex (Bedroom: From Battleground to Playground)

— Sexy and Single (Why God Doesn’t Care About Your Virginity)

— Sex Secrets (Porn, Homosexuality and Stuff Like That)

The Kenosha Unified School District called the flier obscene, disruptive and a violation of Policy 1330, which covers renting Unified space to private organizations.

Nelson said he was stunned at the outcome, and was just trying to attract non-church-going Christians to a new kind of service, while dealing with topical issues. The flier also advertised “loud music, a casual atmosphere, short services, and fun for kids.”
