In the front of the Communications Committee booklet sent out by the church this week is an open letter entitled "A Message to the Congregation" which is signed by Harry Smith, Chairman, and committee members, Jim Angel, Jeff Arnold, Jim Barnwell, Al Childress, David Coombs, John Crockett, Derek Duncan, Scott Foster, Bryan Miller, David Perdue, Mark Spiller, Steve Tucker, Wayne Vander Steeg, and Chuck Taylor, ex-officio. If you have not received a copy or are not a Bellevue member and would like to view the booklet (mostly) in its entirety, you may do so here. See the "Introduction" section to view the letter.
In the letter is this request from the committee:
"We would also kindly ask our membership to refrain from writing e-mails and responses on websites or blogs. This only serves to spread misinformation."
Your thoughts about this, please.
And if you happen to know someone whom you think might benefit from reading some of the "misinformation" to which Mr. Smith and the committee members referred, please refer them to this website, the URL for which is:

It seems only fair that people be given the opportunity to hear all "sides" of the issues so they can then have a truly informed opinion.

«Oldest ‹Older 401 – 405 of 405sorry, i did not mean that. i meant that she has been singing in the choir. she was at church yesterday.
Psalm 43:3 United Methodists do not allow themselves to be "painted" as abortion-supporting homosexuals who deny the resurrection of Christ anymore than Baptists allow themselves to be known as the denomination that gave us Presidents Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton. So, put your brush AWAY!
Well, all I can say about the post on what Dr Rogers may have said is to look back on the things discussed on these blogs. It is turning out that a lot of the sentiment behind most of these posts seeking Truth rings true. Regardless of how the spin doctors try to spin it. We've been flat out lied to, misled and humiliated in front of other congregations on what seems like several occasions. There is likely only 1 person alive that knows exactly if that conversation ever happened the way it was posted if at all. Unfortunately, pride and likely power would keep this person from ever corroborating that conversation if it ever happened. I'd like to hope that it didn't take place. But more and more it feels like something that very well could have based on the trials we now face.
ATTENTION BOYS AND GIRLS! TIME TO TIE A KNOT IN THIS ONE AND MOVE UP TO THE "FINANCIAL ISSUES OR WHATEVER... " THREAD AND CONTINUE.
Thank you,
NBBCOF
