Bro. Pastor.... We have voted that we need to break away from the organization as for association.

And your affiliation.

We have voted (Or members agree) we need you to turn in your UPCI credentials or you will need to leave the assembly.

You went to bed knowing you were in the will of God....

Is the organization bigger than where God wants you to be??

What would you do?????????

don't know.. I just thank God our church is not controlled by a board.. Thank God for a man of God w/ a connection to the Throne!

Take the member off the board and put the board on the member is my theory.
