District Puts WPF on Notice

It's not going to get worse , there will be those that will leave, but not enough to effect the UPC. It is sad, but not note worthy really..as we have seen from the letters and district meetings it is being handled ethicly and with grace. Let them go, the fruits will reveal the tree...

The last word from Hazelwood (that's today) only about 200 have dropped out of UPCI, that's not an earth shattering number out of approx.9248 ministers listed in the directory. There has been a big rush of ministers getting their renewals in so they won't be dropped. That means there are still about 9,000 faithful left and growing all the time. UPCI may have it's problems but it's still the best there is.

If I can ask.......was this "word" officially released or is this your inside source? Just curious!

Came directly from one of the people at Headquarters. Not an official release.

Brother Worthy ... a decade ago there were about 8700-8800 mininsters ... that's a net gain only about 300 ministers in 10 years!! Best there is ????

Why is there such great turnaround ... where is the monumental growth that's talked about?
