You know, JR. If House of Praise put the word International in front of their name, I see you have a great revival. Bring it up at the next board meeting...you'd be a hero. Of course, some may show up at 2AM asking for the boysenberry syrup, but hey whatever it takes to win souls.
ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!

We were laugh at that very thing the other night! Bro. Kennon jokingly said something about changing the name...My wife said we need something that starts with "I" so the church can be called IHOP! lol Too Funny!
Before we got there, they only called it Pentecostal House Of Praise, they never used PHOP....We started referring to it that way and several hated it ....kept calling it P-Hop. I said no...PHOP! lol

That's good. I needed that. But, I believe proselyting was term used describing those leaving Judaism coming to Christianity. I just wonder if we haven't taken it out of context.
If both Pastors were ethical men it wouldn't matter would it??
LOL! Rev, you arent familar with Starks are you?
ethics has little to do when you have 2 churches in rock throwing distance from each other...in a town of less than 500! LOL!
PS, least anyone get any ideas, if you are not from Starks, dont make the mistake of going hunting in the woods around there. some have tried....many have never been seen again! Them is some crazy Redbones! (I can say that im married to one)

Brother Phillips (pastor in shady grove and a district presbyter in Louisiana) has pulled his church out of the org. He is very conservitive and I suspect this is an indication he is OUT.
2. Wayne Cardwell from DeQuincy has been told by his church that he can leave the UPCI but the CHURCH ISNT....
AND .....
3. ANOTHER CHURCH has told their Pastor that he can leave but THE CHURCH IS STAYING! And that man is CRAWFORD COON!
.
One of the elders in this church and his wife are close friends of my mom, and they told her this a couple of weeks ago.
Glad you are still here for the next few days to keep the board balanced. With all those conservatives in Tulsa this board might have tipped too far to the liberal side.
I bet we'll have TONS of guests in the next few days checking in to see what's going on!
