DKB: The Leader

[Sister Alvear]

I mean no harm just am saying I personally LONG time ago recieved a PERSONAL letter from him over a situation in Brazil that he had NO FIRST hand knowledge about. I considered the letter a rebuke from someone I have never met and someone that KNEW zero about a pastor that left the UPC...lol...I just thought if he wanted to rebuke(?) anyone he should have heard both sides then decided...
A family left our work..went UPC then came back...we never took their church and in fact that pastor left our work again after many years and started his own work...we are friends with the family and it is their plans to spend a part of the month of December at our house.

I never even answered the letter...I did not feel I owed any explanation to him...I was only saying at one time I thought of him as being kinda...military...HOWEVER everyone has their own personality and I am sure He is a great man and a man of God.

People just change organizations...it is a natural thing...I personally have helped people build their own churches that have left us...and Brother Alvear has given several buildings to help others...

Many years ago there was a mentality that you were UPC or lost...thank the Lord many things have changed over the years. I personally admire the UPC and Brother Frank Leman and Brother Harry Scism dedeicated two of our children to the Lord.

Brother Norris was one of the greatest missionaries that ever graced Brazil...and he was UPC.

I only hope and am sure he is more opened minded than a fleeting opinion I once had of him..and I am sure life teaches us all lessons...
