Noise Complaints Prompt Church to Leave Ohio CityMASSILLON, Ohio - The pastor of a small Pentecostal church says he's so fed up with neighbors complaining about loud worship services that he's leaving town and taking his church with him.  During the annual revival at Worshippers of Christ the Warrior King in Massillon, Ohio, services with loud music go late into the night. After a revival service on May 3rd, police walked into the church and wrote senior pastor Troy Sowell a ticket for violating the city's noise ordinance.The Reverend Sowell says the controversy has caused his church to lose members. The 49-year-old pastor says he's also lost friends and ministry opportunities. Sowell says the church has held services elsewhere for the last several weeks.
