Not sure if you have this in your area, but we have it here in the Bay area.
Churches have employed the help of police to stop traffic in order for church congregants to be able to exit more easily into traffic.
I personally figure the police have better things to do and that the church congregant issue of leaving the premise should be their own business.
Every damn Sunday!

Make 'em buy a crosswalk stripe and blinky light set.
Can't an usher don an orange vest and carry a crosswalk sign like 8th graders do at school ??
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Given the demographics of most churches, keeping the olds from sideswiping people or damaging bumpers with their hips probably is a good use of traffic cops.
What else would they do on a sunday anyway...directing traffic keeps them busily -not- shooting people.

True Believers don't need ACA, True Christians can mend all manner of ailments with a laying on of the hands.
Sezzso in the Bible.

As long as the church is paying them I don't care.
If the city/county is paying them I care very much.
Do you mind stopping and asking who pays?

I think helping with traffic during a busy time is pretty much par for the course for police. What's the rub?

I think the police action is highly commendable. As with any assemblage of dangerous lunatics the safest course of action is to disperse them as quickly and efficiently as possible. I think the cop's did a fine job.
It's amazing 'science' always seems to 'find' whatever it is funded for, and never the oppsite. Drich.

If they truly have faith the cars would never hit them.
Obviously they don't have enough faith and aren't True Christians™
