However a full blown organization is in the works with it's own Bible Quizzing program, youth ministries, Foreign and Home missions...

... and notice that they've chosen the nomenclature that I would have chosen - instead of calling brethren outside of North America "foreign", they're in "World Missions" territory.

Anyway, whenever they approach a UPC'er to "fellowship," they are quite obviously intent upon growing their own org. That's prosyletizing.

And I know of one minister who was proselytized and specifically asked not to tell his direct leadership about the conversation.... why the intrigue and "hush-hush" if it's all on the up and up????

Let me see, how was the question asked of St. Matt... Is that something you witnessed personally or is it just something you have on some supposed good authority?
