Just that those who leave have their own ministry structure already in motion and the UPC while a fellowship is not necessarily needed for that type of support....

It's interesting how many may not know these things...

When I came to the Cincinnati area in 1957 I attended the First Apostolic Church. Our pastor was Bro. Frank Curts. He was the Ohio Dist. Supt. but his church was not affiliated.

The general distrust of the organization has been growing for years.

It's just another example of picking and choosing what you want from an organization, or, speaking out of both sides of the mouth. The org. is supported and the church participates in org. events and benefits from exposure and fellowship of the org., just for the church to play by different rules when it disagrees with the org.
