Additional information:
The owner of the church confronted my raid group in the top green circled parking area (only place to reach new gym - top blue circle). He addressed the issue of players parking in their entrance lane to take over / raid the gym & how it’s a now active problem. It was not a problem as a Pokestop as players simply spun the stop from the busy intersection (red arrows). This however became problematic after a 6th waypoint forced a new gym at their church. He said he doesn’t mind the PokeStop, but would like to have the gym moved to avoid future issues. We came up with a possible solution of switching the gym to the ‘Westmister Church Community Garden’ just south of their churches parking lot & making ‘First Church of the Open Bible’ back into a PokeStop.

If the owners of the church have an issue with the gym being there, give them this link and get them to fill in the form:
The Wayfarer team don't have any say in changing Pokéstops to Gyms or vice versa, that can only be done through the form by the landowner.
Also, as Pokémon Go reminds you when you log in and when you do raids, you need to behave appropriately and courteously, and respect your surroundings and other people.
I will definitely figure out a way to let the owner know, thank you for the information @HankWolfman-PGO
As for the reminder to behave appropriately… I would call going out of my way to do this for both sides of the community to be the definition of courtesy as this does nothing for me but take up my time.
Thanks for the appeal, @ShinyApex-PGO. Based on our research, the Wayspot is at the correct location and does not require any adjustments at this time.
