GoFundMe Strikes Again: Online Donation Site Cancels Another Persecuted Christian Campaign
A campaign to aid Barronelle Stutzman, a Christian florist who refused to arrange flowers for a same-sex wedding, has been pulled from the GoFundMe site.
This is the second time GoFundMe has pulled support for a Christian business. Before Stutzman, they removed a page supporting Sweet Cakes By Melissa, which was trying to raise funds for a couple who was fined $135,000 for refusing to cater a gay wedding.
Sweet Cakes, though, was rescued by a good Samaritan. Franklin Graham’s Samaritan’s Purse picked up the cause, and eventually created a campaign to support persecuted Christians in the States.
Of Aaron and Melissa Klein, the owners of Sweet Cakes by Melissa, Graham said: “They have taken a stand for the Word of God, and they should not have to stand alone. I believe that Christians across our nation will rally around Aaron and Melissa and their five children.
“Please pray for Aaron and Melissa, and pray for our nation. When our judges are punishing Christians for practicing what they believe, that’s persecution, plain and simple.”
