Re: Prince joining UPCI ?
In 2004, Prince asked New Creation Church to stop paying him a salary. The church's council members, however, refused his request.[15][16]
On October 5, 2008, in an interview with The Sunday Times, Prince, the executive chairman of the church council, while acknowledging that he was "well-paid," added that "money doesn't have a hold on me." He dismissed allegations that his salary was $50,000 a month, saying "It could have been $50,000 if I had not voluntarily taken all the pay cuts through the years.
There was a system of payment that would actually enrich me greatly but as the church grew, I refused to accept that system of payment."[3]
On March 30, 2009, The Straits Times reported that a check revealed that New Creation Church paid one employee between $500,000 and $550,000 in its last financial year of 2008. Singapore's Code of Governance for charities [17] requires all charities and non-profit organizations in Singapore to disclose top executives' salaries to the Commissioner of Charities. While the church would not confirm that the amount in question had been paid to Prince, church officials told The Straits Times that the church's policy is to "recognise and reward key contributors to the church and Senior Pastor Prince is the main pillar of our church's growth and revenue."The New Creation Church's income was reported to be $55.4 million for the financial year ending March 2008.[18]
On June 7, 2010, The Straits Times and Channel News Asia reported that Joseph Prince has not been on the church payroll since 2009

JP's congregation alone would double the upci membership.

Does he have 6,000,000 people in his congregation?
According to the UPCI, in the United States and Canada it has grown from 521 member churches in 1946 to 4,305 churches in 2011, with 9,193 ministers.[12] The UPCI has a presence in 193 other nations with 34,133 licensed ministers, 19,686 churches and meeting places, 748 missionaries, and a foreign membership of about 2.2 million. Total worldwide membership, including North America, is estimated at 3,000,000.

It's not likely he'll go from GRACE to modern day law keeping. Dream on.

Re: Prince joining UPCI ?
The numbers are inflated. They don't count converts. The upci count heads who show during highest peak levels of church attendance.
They were barely at 2 million constituents when Teklemarian was booted out. Took a third of the angels with him... What revival replaced that "fallling away"?
