MsBoomm, I am not directing my opinions at all UPC churches. I was making a statement that is interesting that it seems that the UPC churches are not the ones helping. That is all I am saying. I do get the sense from the UPC churches I have been around are not community minded. I had an Asso. Pastor tell me once that his church changed the name and almost added the word community in there. He said that he squashed the idea because it makes you do outreach and be community minded. I know that this does not speak to all of the UPC churches, but some do have a bad rap for not being caring churches. I certainly agree with you that there is alot of good that can come out of this. Seeing the Mighty God in Christ would be great. My guess is that these churches are not too far off in beliefs anyway. But it would be great to see what happens.

This brings another question, what if some of the AG saints want to join the UPC church would it be right for the pastor of the UPC church to take those saints? I am just playing devil's advocate. It is an interesting thought, if I do say so.
