I would not have an issue with it if this was done with full disclosre to the rest of the congregation.
You know, this can also work the other way. Some times in these situation when people see others move forward, they feel pressured to do the same without any sincere motivation to do it. Again, I have seen this happen to people who don’t feel lead to go down to the altar. They are even looked down on for not joining in.
That's a good point, and I need to think about it.
