Kentucky church doesn't allow interracial marriage

Small church in Kentucky gets big attention! Melvin Thompson, previous pastor, had a poll at the church asking if interracial marriage should be permitted. Members of the church voted 9-6 on the conversational debate, which means the church would not allow interracial marriage. This turned into a big conflict when Stella Harville, engaged to Ticha Chikuni, from South Africa, attempted to get married at Stella's church, "Gulnare Free Will Baptist Church". This caused a dilemma, therefor president of the Pike County Ministerial Association got involved and says, "It's not the spirit of the community in any way, shape or form,".  Therefor, a new pastor of the name  Stacy Stepp took over and will ask members to reconsider the decision, perhaps as early as Sunday.
