Well, once again today’s post is being directed towards current events rather than what I planned. Let’s see, there were 355 elders and wives in attendance at the last GCE. Let’s assume that only 2/3rds of the wives were able to travel. That means there are about 296 elders. Now,…
Before I got sidetracked with Mr Arctic Circle Guy, I was actually looking for something else. One letter was posted on the UCG Current Crisis site, apparently from the daughter and son-in-law of a UCG member in Wichita, KS. It is disturbing if true. It appears that the member clicked…
