We learned it from the Baptist, it's called multiplication by division.

There's actually a "church growth" curriculum by a UPC Pastor called "Dividing to Multiply."

Re: Parkersburg, WV

hmm. more painful in a sense; more competitive, surely...yet, there is a time to gather stones, and a time to...um, not gather them

my fuzzed brain may be allowing my pure heart to see that we must have sects as long as we try to codify the Holy Spirit into a single doctrine on an issue.

My mom likes the mango tree in the back yard; where it will most likely never fruit due to too much shade. I'm removing the royal...whatever, Royal Shedder in the front yard (beautiful tree, but requires a 1 hour yard raking twice a year in order that the yard stay impeccably manicured, in full sun) bc she hates the maintenance. Now, i like mangos; but i don't live here (well, i didn't ). Since the mango tree is only about 6 ft tall at this point, she is asking me if she should transplant the mango into the royal pain tree spot soon to be vacated. what should i tell her, i wonder...

Another one is the apostolic church in St Mary's (Pastor Terry Lough). I think he joined the UPC?

Parkersburg needs a good church
