The same denomination as Obama’s 20-year church run by Jeremiah Wright, the United Church of Christ.

We have a United Church of Christ down the street from my home, the only flag it flies is of the LGBT rainbow variety.

(ABNA) — “We went from rentee to renter,” Don Medal, the Council Chairman of Grand Forks’ most liberal Protestant Christian church, United Church of Christ, told Grand Forks Herald on Saturday, June 23.

Cooperation between the church and the Muslim community started several decades ago.

It started by the move of UND’s Memorial Union and in the Lotus Meditation Center, a private nonprofit group on campus, to host Muslim Friday prayer.

Over the past year, the Muslim group has been renting the UCC space for Friday prayers.

A month ago the decision was taken to buy the space.

The deal was brokered by Nabil Suleiman, an assistant professor of civil engineering at UND and the spokesman for the group that has agreed to buy the UCC building.

The church decision was taken in a trial to find other sources for the church which older and more established members have passed on in recent years to be replaced by younger members.
