[Miss Marple]

Thank you, RevNan. I am always having to explain that whatever the national group does is not necessarily funded by we local people.

Our church is quite conservative and is mainly concerned with the Gospel, Bible study, evangelization, and feeding the poor. We have sent liberal pastors packing, believe me!!

The Bishop isn't fond of us, but we take nothing from the district or from the national group. We are self-sustaining, and they really just tolerate us, since we bring their numbers up. Ha!

Same with my church, and a whole lot more than you would think. The hierarchy is perplexed because the locals won't support their liberal ideas. Maybe they will get a clue one of these days. God bless.
