“We got the joy of the Holy Ghost!” Chanted a group of Jesus lovers as they made their way up and down Santa Monica Boulevard in the heart of West Hollywood’s LGBT Rainbow District as part of a Jesus March pop-up lead by Sean Feucht.
The Jesus Marchers gathered at West Hollywood Park at roughly 7:30pm. There was a small performance by a band and speakers acknowledged that they were about to embark upon an area occupied by LGBT people.
One speaker said he was artificially inseminated by a lesbian couple and he complained that he never heard the word Jesus for the first 16 years of his life. “There is hope for these people,” he said while pointing towards Santa Monica Boulevard.
The crowd, which also included small children, waved flags bearing Jesus’ name, they danced on the street, pounded on drums, and chanted, “Jesus! Jesus! Jesus loves you California,” while they passed Rocco’s WeHo, Mother lode, The Abbey, and made their way past Stache WeHo, towards Micky’s WeHo and then headed back to West Hollywood park.
For the most part West Hollywood nightlife patrons look amused. A video posted on Sean Feucht’s Twitter account captured some highlight’s from the West Hollywood Jesus March. The reception seemed to be jovial but some were not impressed and gave the Jesus marchers the middle finger.

According to his website, Sean Feucht is a speaker, author, missionary, artist, activist, and the founder of multiple global movements including Burn 24-7, a worship and prayer movement now spanning six continents and more than 250 cities; Light A Candle, a global missions and compassion movement bringing light, hope, healing, and tangible love to the hardest, darkest, and most isolated places of the earth; Hold the Line, a movement seeking to engage the church and young people to inform, educate, and inspire the next generation of leaders to stand for what is right in the governmental arena; and Let Us Worship, a movement across America gathering believers to worship and pray boldly for revival.
Feucht is also a singer, songwriter, and former worship leader at Bethel Church.
He ran unsuccessfully as a Republican in California’s 3rd Congressional District. Since running for Congress, Feucht has hosted large outdoor worship gatherings to protest government restrictions due to the COVID-19 pandemic. These events have seen thousands of people gather to worship.
Feucht believes “God’s divine design for marriage, one man and one woman, married for life,” reads a post on his website, where ads are pro Trump and promote My Pillow. He’s also anti-abortion, and believes “His plan for humanity, ‘male and female he created them,’ so he’s not too keen on transgender people, because it’s like, what would Jesus do?
So wait, they are Jesus freaks but not homophobic? Ok let me waste their time if they want to
That’s funny. Were there a lot of people or was that a trick of the camera?
An old P. T. Barnum trick (routinely used by right-wing christians) where a relatively small group of people mixes in with a larger group waiting to cross a street or waiting to enter a building and, it appears that the whole group is part of the protest. A zoom lens can amplify the effect. Sean Feucht an anti-LGBTQ, anti-abortion, anti-Feminist, antivaxx COVID-19 denier, anti-BLM racist uses deceptive tactics supported by corporate media & law enforcement to give an illusion of popular support. He routinely runs for political office, failing miserably at even the primary level. NO real popular support.
Let’s make a deal… I won’t try to convert you to being gay if you don’t try to convert me into being a Jesus freak.
Who says Jesus isn’t hangin out at Mickey’s ? This people have him all wrong.
God bless their totally ignorant hateful hearts.
