“To let you know the reason why we’re in this position is because I done some research, I made the phone calls, I talked to the proper people,” said Pastor Alvin Christian in a since-deleted Facebook Live video. “Are y’all tied in or partners with LGBQ, T, whatever? And they said ‘yes.’ I done some more research and found out that they are part of the gay rights movement.”

Pastor Christian runs the God’s Store House Food Bank in Bluefield, West Virginia, which until recently was serving over 800 families daily and 8,000 unique families every month across four Virginia and West Virginia counties.
