I do not dislike the UPC.
I am not very happy about some of the stuff that has been sifting through the organization lately.
I don't like the fact that this extremely divisive tv resolution was allowed to keep coming back by the resolution committee year after year in a crass abuse of our electoral process, fomenting division and unrest.
I am very much an admirer and supporter of our foreign missions efforts.
I have served in sectional and district offices.
But I don't pastor the church as if it were a daughter work of WEC.
That doesn't mean I don't like the UPC; it just means I try not to let the sometimes fickle meanderings of a minister's fellowship have overwhelming sway in the congregation I am privileged to lead.
Edited to add:
I am very blessed with great leadership locally. My presbyter is one of the finest men I have ever known, and my DS is also a great man. I support them 100%, and they are the main reasons I still remain licensed.
