to his churchThose seeking proof of a religious vaccine exemption need look no further than Oklahoma pastor Jackson Lahmeyer, who is offering members of his congregation a signed opt-out form.
But the exemption might cost you.
The Tulsa pastor is encouraging people to donate to his church so they can stream his services and become an online member of the church, according to The Washington Post. Only then, will his signed exemption "carry any weight," he told the outlet.
In a Wednesday conversation with Insider, Lahmeyer cited the impending federal vaccine mandate for employers with more than 100 employees as the catalyst for his offer.

OP
As soon as the donation hits the bank account, the signed exemption will be en route.

That's shows the reality of religion in America. It's a financial enterprise.
