Re: Update by -Richard Gazowsky

I attended VOP in the early 1970’s – about 8 years. Strong music program, revival atmosphere.Many outreach programs, vibrant youth group – several choirs. Winning others to Jesus was focal point of church. Extremely charasmatic pastor. RG - her son - was a musically talented teenager – sang with his family – drove Sunday School buses. Limited education – friendly - energetic - dreamer. No job skills. Has been exclusively "employed" by VOP entire life & eventually inherited the church. Music programs, outreach programs, salvation message - all discarded. Church group - in it's original form - hasn't existed for years. Great loss to the community.

If they did that is fine with me. I always like to hear from people who were actually attached to a situation.

What they posted matches what I have been told over the years by people who had connections with that church.

Exclamation Re: Update by -Richard Gazowsky

Just found out that the Voice of Pentecost, AKA WYSIWYG Productions lead by Richard Gazowsky, They are bankrupt and the VOP building was Foreclosed on due to UN-Paid Mortgage and the city of SF suing Richard and WYSIWYG Film Production company. In-spite of the sale and loss of the VOP Richard claims that they will not move out of the building and that it is the Will of GOD that they continue to stay there and follow the dream of making the movie that God told him to make since 2007 mentioned in the Film Documentary the Audience of One.

He has completely lost his mind, he has no intention of leaving even though he has defaulted on the mortgage and owes the city of SF over one million dollars in past due bills, fines and fees. The man is a joke and very delusional at best! See Article below:

Give this a try....

Love your enemies?

I forgot who Richard Gazowsky was until his mom passed away. But when I see people crying and complaining about ministries they were hurt by, all I can say is, that I have my wounds. I just stopped trying to find people to lick them. Move on, live life, show people how YOU are not like these people and forgive them. Getting bitter just makes you want to vote for Trump. You don't want that to happen to you? RIGHT?

This is a very sad situation for both the people that consider themselves part of VOP and for the bad light evangelical Spirit filled Christians will once again be put in by some nut job preacher.

As long as Richard could pay his bills and find people to keep following him he was just another eccentric man in the Pentecostal / Charismatic movement whose antics caused many of us to shake our heads in wonder.

However if this report is true he has crossed that line from eccentric to unstable and causing harm to the body of Christ through these actions.

I pray that sanity will prevail and that RG has some sane men of God to give him counsel not to go down the path of occupying a church he is not paying for and in default for.
