The ICC, which claims non-members are damned, has a ministry dedicated to students. Members are recruited on campus and asked to prove their commitment by recruiting more members. I went to one meeting and decided it wasn't for me. I was then continually rung by her and several members tried to come round to my house to hold prayer meetings and bible readings. Michelle Johnson, aged 27, a voluntary worker in Manchester, and former student member of the Manchester Christian Church, said students were expected to give 10 per cent of their cincome, raise more than 250 pounds a year and give generously to the poor.
Recruitment is too strong a word.
These people are just enthusiastically sharing their faith. Their enthusiasm is just thought of as cultish because others do not have the same beliefs. Back to other media reports about the International Churches of Christ.
