Pokemon GO Players
We’ve come to learn that our Temple, a place of worship, is designated as a Gym in Pokemon GO. We continue to permit players to enter our private property to play Pokemon GO, but kindly ask that in addition to the OLPH Community Guidelines, players must also follow all aspects of the Pokemon GO Terms of Service, especially sections 3.2 & 3.3 to ensure the safety of parishioners and players.
While we are more than happy to welcome people on our property to play Pokemon GO, OLPH reserves the right to deny access to our property to anyone at anytime if the above guidelines are violated or if inappropriate, disrespectful, or illegal activity is noticed on our property. We thank you in advance for your continued respect for this holy space.
We respect you, so please respect us!
