FORREST CITY, Ark. ā€” An Arkansas church is receiving backlash after allegedly turning away a Black woman.

The Forrest City church said it was all a miscommunication.

The woman claimed a church member at First Baptist Church of Forrest City turned her and her family away; she then took to Facebook to describe her experience.

The pastor said he believes the incident is an example of miscommunication and the incident didnā€™t come from a bad place.

Walter said he took the time to explain to his congregation that they must be sensitive in how they communicate with other cultures while being open and accepting of everyone.
