It is our choice to do that which is right before the Lord and in the sight of man or to do otherwise. We do not need to waste valuable time debating over personal issues. As your Bishop, it is my job to make sure this Diocese has a government that is both right and fair to all. Each Pastor will have a vote and the majority vote will rule unless vetoed by the Presiding Prelate. The Louisiana District Council has several very good District Fellowships and we want to encourage the growth and development of more fellowship.
Good fellowship is very valuable to church growth.
Our meeting will not be hosted by one church, but rather hosted by the District Fellowship and even churches that are not affiliated with the P. A. of W. and the Louisiana District Council can freely attend and be a part if they so choose. We need each other. Pastors need other Pastors in their cities to work with and to fellowship with. The Council will do everything it can to help build and encourage more fellowship. Each church in the fellowship is to be received with love and respect and given equitable support.
