Historic Christian Church To Be Stripped Of Crosses; Turned Into Mosque

Mark 13:13 “You will be hated by all because of My name, but the one who endures to the end, he will be saved.”

A church in upstate New York that once held designation as a historical landmark will now be stripped of that designation and have the crosses on the building ripped down so that a Muslim group can turn the building into a mosque.

The Syracuse History Preservation Board has given permission to the Muslim-driven North Side Learning Center to destroy six crosses that were placed at the top of the century-old building.

German immigrants seeking freedom of worship built the church.

The Catholic Church closed the church in 2010 because of decreasing attendance, merging the congregation with another parish.  The building still had been designated as a historic landmark by the city after the closure.

A spokesman for the city said that the city did not have an opinion on the loss of the historic status for the building, saying that they wouldn’t stop the destruction of the crosses because it would inhibit the worship of the Muslims.
