Christian shelter to lose fed funds for hiring only Christians

A Christian homeless shelter in Pennsylvania is in danger of losing federal funding because it won’t hire Muslim employees and won’t sign an anti-discrimination contract.

The Grace Youth and Family Foundation’s Winter Relief Center is refusing to sign a government contract for $35,000 in funding from the Butler County Department of Human Services because of the text of the contract, which the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reported stipulates no discrimination “based on race, color, religious creed, ancestry, national origin, age, sex, sexual orientation, or non-job related handicap or disability.”
