There was a situation a few years ago in Tennessee where several Apostolic churches in the same area had fallen out of fellowship. Some had not spoken to each other in years. One of the brothers began to pray and seek God because of the "emptiness" he felt in his soul. The Lord began to deal with him to go to the other brethren and wash their feet. He did. Some refused at first, but over time, fellowship was retored and brethren were once again in... well, one accord. I was there for a communion foot washing service and had the extreme honor of washing the feet of these servants of God who "...bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth! Isa 52:7 "

and such an honor to wash the feet of God's children...
