Stuff like racism isn't always broadcasted.

Hey FZ our congregation is a good mix of ALL people, that is one thing that is important to us in a church home.

Yes, it is JM's daughter.

I'm sure you are referring to Steve Epley when you say "you".

Well that sound like a great church except for that little thingy (the trinity) I would be tempted to visit.

I do not like to worship with trinies, I might get the cooties.

At one time I did feel close to this Pastor I preached for him in PEI. His first 2 thanksgivings I was at his home in SA. We are somewhat friendly but since I left the AMF seven years ago and the last few years in the AMF there was already a division in it and we were in separate camps that strained our relationship. He and I have never had a personal problem. Knowing his personality his close associates(which are all in a trumoil themselves) could only help the situation. If the boy's pastor cannot intervene and help I see no help coming. If I was as close to him as I one time was I would have no hesitation is trying to mediate the issue but atlas my advise would not be wanted nor accepted. I will say this pastors raised in the time frame must realize the prejudices that were engrained were not healthy and that day is over. I had a battle with this myself I acknowledge it was not culturally acceptable and we are all products of our cultures like it or not. Racism is a sin however every objection might not be racism. I certainly do not know?
