I stand corrected, "kicked out" is probably not the most accurate description of what happened. She was shamed and shunned out. She said nobody would talk to her and everybody avoided her and things were said to her by leadership to make her feel she was unsaved and displeasing to God. I don't want to out her by telling you what her horrible crime was, but believe me it's minor. No sex or drugs involved, btw.
Incidentally, the last time I talked w/her she invited me to a birthday party for a good friend of hers. The party was being held at a popular gay nightclub and her friend was a former UPC evangelist who backslid and is extremely bitter about the treatment he received by what he thought were his UPC friends at a Sacramento church when he revealed his weakness and asked for help. She stopped him from committing suicide because he was so depressed. He is now openly gay and she had to convince him to meet me once he found out I was a minister. His fear and anger toward me was palpable.
