Singing should be allowed with distancing and masks based on published studies.

Lift the restrictions.

Must be treat believers fairly

We need to open the churches

Time to trust the people Dan

I support equality for Victoria's People of faith

We need to allow people to attend Church services inside our Churches. It is not appropriate to be conducting Mass for 5 people at a time out in the elements, when people are going to the beach or take away coffee shops and lining up by the dozens.

Freedom to worship!

Please make if fairer for all faith communities

Hi Premier As an Orthodox Christian I strongly believe the church is an essential part of my life for prayer and it is the house of our God to visit and accept blessing

We want our Churches open now, thank you We need fellowship ❤️

I agree with the statements in this petition and respectfully request it's request be taken most seriously.

I hope our churches open again soon and operate as per normal They our light within in our community not only for the faithful but for everyone. We all at some point have a wedding or funeral of loved ones. May we pray and celebrate our spirituality in peace and decency of 11sacredness. May God be always with us! Allelujah!

I have noticed that the Church have been doing good works & caring in the community and is really an essential service as it supports lots of people mentally, physically and spiritually. During the whole Covid it always were allowed the same numbers of people as cafes and pubs, yet now suddenly cafes can have 70 or as much as is possible with square metre rule and there is no more risk there than other places, because we are wearing masks and can have a Covid safe plan. This seems unfair and unwarranted and Churches should be viewed for all the good contributions they are making in society.

We need God's Divine Help in this Pandemic. He alone can work miracles.

Fairness without bias

We have been unable to participate in religious ceremonies of every nature in person since March. Although it was necessary and we all understand why that had to occur, reopening places of worship at step 3 can contribute to our overall wellbeing, more so than that of reopening of cafes and restaurants.

I think it’s very sad! This is definitely very discriminatory

Please open up our places of worship! It is unfare & inconsistant. We would like equality. It is an essential need just like going to the supermarket or the doctor. The numbers on this petition are only people who are online & not inclusive of people unfamiliar with technology! Thank you.
