Sister Alvear, we know that this kind of rumor and gossip mongering is not of God. So you just keep on keeping on. God will take care of your enemies for you. I do believe that God is able to keep you and yours in spite of all the enemy brings against you. Just laugh at some people's pathetic attempts to tear down what God has raised up. Count it all joy.

It kinda hurts me that men would stoop so low and not be man enough to come to me IF they think I have changed...lol...and these are men that do not believe in women preachers so they don´t even think I am saved to start with...
However, I am not going to waste my time...my life declares what I hold dear to me and that is what Jesus held dear to him: the souls of lost men and women all over the world.

My goal in life is not to split the UPC, ACI , CIA, FBI or anything like that. In fact my children NEVER knew anything about UPC/AMF until they were grown! We minded our own business and I usually worked to help make money to support us and little churches and friends here and there were moved on by the Holy Ghost to help us.

I do not like politics...do not believe they mixed in the first church and sure have no room for things like that in the church today...
My husband and I do not feed on things like that and that is the exact reason we have stayed in our little corner working for the Lord.
I don´t need a church council telling me who I can be friends with...IF MY PASTOR questioned or had any doubt about any of my friends HE IS MAN ENOUGH to come to me. I talk to him every week or so and have for the last 40 years.

When I am in the states I visit churches that ask me to come and promote missions. I don´t always agree with everything and I am sure some do not agree with me but they do not doubt my sincerity.

I will always be grateful when I was 6 years old a little spiritual communion babysitter took my sisters and I to a little oneness church and it was there my folks became christians. A year later God led them to greater truth...but each time I am home I still when in the state go by there to thank a little lady for taking me to church...

Do I believe like she does? No...but I am forever grateful to her...and so I am grateful to all those that give to missions...
gotta run...sorry if I have offended anyone by this post...

If your being accused of your good works, count it as joy. It's a long list that starts with Jesus and the Apostles that you've joined...

Sis Alvear,

I just saw this, and I am sorry that you are feeling hurt.

We are human, and we can still be hurt.

I have not heard about this from any other source, but I have a feeling I know where these things are being said.

What sets you apart from some, is that you "talk" to everyone.
You do not limit your conversation to those that are "like" you.
In other words, you do not "shun" folks if they don't believe 100 % like you.

Is that a good thing? Yes indeed it is.

You show love, compassion, kindness, friendship, thoughtfulness, and the list could go on.

I don't want you to worry over this kind of talk.
Just know that there are people everywhere that know better, and will not believe the gossips.

Blessings!

When there's one finger pointing at someone else, there's three more pointing back at them!

Sis. A., the other thing I know that you know already, but I want to remind you of is.......

When it's all said and done, you don't have to answer to anyone except Jesus. What they say about, they will have to give account to God for. If what they are saying is diminishing your effect work, then shame on them. And they will have sooooo much more to answer to God for! I could almost convince myself to feel pity for them. Almost. Too bad I'm so human

I just think it is so silly.

Why not leave people alone and "work" their area? Visitation to the unsaved, visiting the sick, praying for their church folks, and praying for the missionaries.

Why are they wasting their time talking about a missionary lady in another country ?

If it is who I think it is doing the talking, they don't even believe in
women preachers.

It's just silly!
