Lendlease initially requested the removal of the word 'Jesus' from a church sign due to potential offense but later apologized and allowed it.

Pastor Duffy claimed Lendlease, that's the name of the mall or the company that owns the mall, requested to withdraw the word Jesus from the sign as it may have offended shoppers and non-Christians. Pastor Duffy said Lendlease has since changed their mind and allowed the word Jesus to be included in the sign. In a statement, the Lendlease spokeswoman said that they regretted asking for the sign to be amended. Quote, it was an error of judgment to ask Elim Church to change its messaging, and we apologize unreservedly. That's in the actual article that Alex is reporting.
