I would be under the assumption that they would have it there permanently for two reason.
1) Central location
2) Long term contract with the Arena, hotels and such.

Nothing more, and nothing less then that.
Also it's close to the UPC Vatican and hierarchy

Also, there may have been bribes involved...

Nor, I think that was spoof on the bribing that happens to get the Olympics to one's city!

Not so much DKB slipping into and alley with suitcase, or in a cigar smoke filled room cutting a deal with the board members.

BUT I COULD BE WRONG!!

Re: Starting in 2012....the UPCI will.....

I am really surprised they didn't move the GC to being biennial. With the high cost of travel these days that would seem to make sense.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.

"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.

"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

Quote from Ethel Goss (widow of 1st UPC Gen Supt. Howard Goss) book "The Winds of God"

Contrary to the common belief of some, there are alot of people that are very happy in the UPCI. Some of us, like myself, have never left and many others have left only to return later.

Re: Starting in 2012....the UPCI will.....

Folks, it's all about the money, period, bottom line. The UPCI was over 14 million dollars in debt until they finally slaughtered the "Sacred Cow", Harvestime. As of April, 2011, they are still over 10 million in the Red. Giving is down, attendence is down, and people in this Country are financially strapped. No sense in candy-coating it, the CASH is tight!

"Harvestime"? They couldn't even afford a "T"?
