(((NEWS FLASH))) ALJC & UPC Merger Talks pick up Steam?
 
DId you hear that a Letter was sent out To ALJC Pastors and that talks are resuming ????? I heard from a ALJC MInister's wife who told me this along with this information: Things are going to start merging slowly with joint and shared events and The local ALJC pastors got a letter from Bro. Haney stating that all these guys met recently & are going to support each other (perhaps shared events?)and have links to each other's websites.





Does anyone have additional information , perhaps the letter ??

Whatever.

Most of those guys would never, ever come into the mothership.

It's a pipe dream Thad.

I am sure the PAJC/PCI boys were saying the same thing, but it happened.

Nahum 10-24-2007 11:25 AM

How many men are in the ALJC?

200?

300?

I'm not upset with you Bro.

I just find that very hard to believe.

Documentation would certainly change my mind.

Further, I believe a "merger" would need to be presented to the General Conference floor of each organization. A dissolution of the ALJC is another matter entirely.

I have heard they are suffering numerically right now.

No, I was once a part of the ALJC, and they are a great bunch of people. But over the past few years they have lost many men to the UPC, including their former GS, Brother Don Johnson.

I can't imagine the organization is growing, or even numerically stable.

I heard about Bro Johnson and the others coming over.

maybe the UPC believes this will cushion the blow when we lose the estimated numbers in January
