Officers were at the church at 751 John St. on Sunday and say they counted more than 283 people attending a large gathering at the church. Police say an outdoor stage and seating area was set up for the service.

In an update shared on Thursday, police said they’ve laid charges against the church and two men.

The church faces one charge related to defying COVID-19 restrictions, while an Aylmer man, 57, and a Stirling man, 36, face one count each of a similar offence.

It’s the third consecutive Sunday the church has held a service since a judge ordered the doors locked at the church earlier this month.

Police previously charged a 37-year-old man and a 57-year-old man in relation to a large gathering at the church last Sunday.
