correct but they sent the letter all over the world informing all that he had been terminated and until they did that (which was unnecssary) he hadnt responded he only responded after they went worldwide.

Re: T. Wynn Drost fired!
My point is they should have kept it in house ,the termination letter to every missionary worldwide was totally unecssary and was the reason he responded

Re: T. Wynn Drost fired!
The UPC is just a shell of what it used to be. With the internet you don't need the org.

Re: T. Wynn Drost fired!
Well we know one thing, either DB or Drost is a liar. And according to canam it's DB.

Re: T. Wynn Drost fired!
No according to my eyes and ears via the vid, letters were sent to all his board members in mexico without his knowledge ,than letters were sent to all missionaries worldwide telling them he had been terminated ,but not telling them why, which left him open to accusations and rumors he then responded with this vid and they responded with a "clarifying"/damage control letter ,it all should have stayed in house ,then no ones reputation would have been impugned which they said was the reason why they wont tell anyone the details ,In fact they impugned his reputation anyway,He is very highly respected in Canada and at least the northeastern part of the US and this is going to cause major damage when the Canadians here this ,its a dumb move on the UPC's part. My prediction is T Wynn will get lots of support privately and anonomously and the Atlantic dist. could be jepordized. Dumb Dumb Dumb, why ? because they have let worse pass for years ie: Tekle's situation in Pakistan.So Bottom line is what was it ? management style ,old school style vs the young turks ? what ??

Okay, there is an 'elephant in the room' that no one is addressing, so I will...
You are SO strenuously defending Bro. Drost, to the point of almost calling Bro. Bernard a liar...
Inquiring minds want to know, why?
Are you kin? Was he once your pastor...long time friend...school chum...fishing buddy...? What's up?

Re: T. Wynn Drost fired!
Because we don't know the actual point of contention there is no way to make a judgement as to which party is right or wrong or if both are right and wrong to some degree.
Sadly the only conclusion we can make from the information shared is that the UPCI Global Missions is acting very petty in regard to seeking restitution for the old car and appliances. For me that undermines greatly any moral or ethical high ground they might have regarding the actual issue of contention, whatever that may be.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

You are right but it sure is fun to speculate and gossip.
