Kentucky church bans interracial couples from membership

After 24-year-old local Stella Harville brought her Zimbabwe-born fiancé, Ticha Chikuni, to church last summer. Pike church takes stand against interracial couples:

A small Pike County church has voted not to accept interracial couples as members or let them take part in some worship activities.

The decision has caused sharp reaction and disapproval in the Eastern Kentucky county.

"It's not the spirit of the community in any way, shape or form," Randy Johnson, president of the Pike County Ministerial Association, said of the vote.
