A group of Christians disrupted a satanic prayer during a council meeting in Pensacola, Florida on Thursday, ABC 3 reported.

Members of the United Methodist Church of Pace said the Lord's Prayer as David Suhor, co-founder of the local Satanic Temple, started the invocation during the meeting. Many more prayed outside the building.

Council President Charles Bare warned the crowd that if they didn't quiet down, they would have to leave. Some people were escorted out by law enforcement.

Some of the church members prayed quietly as Suhor continued the invocation. One council member walked out.

But some people stayed.

"I would rather be in a room than let darkness sit here by itself," one man in the audience said, according to the report.
