Oh, also I enjoyed going to Emporia and Rome City I thought was beautiful..Going to the ROA was kind of fun for awhile, although I hate tent camping. LOL Change of scene I guess. Jan

What I loved a long time ago was the fellowship, how sweet it was. That was probably why some people stayed as long as they did (those who left TWI) was they felt connected. In a church I'd been a part of for 6 years, I felt that same intimacy closeness so I knew it was possible to get that elsewhere in a church!! Jan

I've been there, thanks. What is the significance of the Cortrights anyhow? jan

You must be an avid poster! :)--> Jan

We ran a twig in Augusta/Hephzibah GA and would like to know if anyone knows: Adina Hayes Buddy and Debby Curry Margie Schaefer Jim and Joan Melton, Branch coord. David and Cheryl Ginn, Branch coord Also Terry and Angie Mays SC Jan

I knew Hank and Betsy Upchurch in Charlotte. Did they leave too? Jan

That is interesting, I met him in Cheyenne WY too in 1977. Jan

My name is listed with discoverer next to it. Some people have some other name next to theirs. Where does that come from? Jan

How can we find out about people who have left? Is there a directory, website or something? thanks, Jan

Anyone know about Chip Stan*bu*y? Jan

Is there any real way to know if some of these people listed in this thread are out of the TWI? Like John and Ce* Da*y, Dick D*Ne*o? I knew them personally. Jan

How do you know for certain who is gone from TWI? Where did Elena go for ex.? Jan Jan

I never did either, even if it was available to me. Jan

I live in Sierra Vista, south of Tucson. Where in Southern AZ do you live ZSpot? Jan

....and the church of working late, overinvolvement, football, wrestling,fundraisers...LOL!! Jan

What is a safe church? This one church we are going to check out on Sun has fellowships for men, women, sunday school, home bible study and one big fellowship ex. potluck!! That's lots. Jan

We've tried COG,AOG, So. Baptist, community churches,nondenom like Calvary chapel (which is really good but it lacks much fellowship). Jan

Well, I think we've all learned that the "love of God" can take various forms (not LOL). But I've heard it both ways from people, but who knows really? Does anyone suggest we call them and ask "hey are you gay?" Hmmm. I say drop it. Jan

Oh ok thanks Jan

These forums do not enable me to quote someone, but thanks to the person who said they prayed over the phone book. I did that the other night and like you, I was Pentecostal but felt drawn to a Presby church (PCA). I talked to the pastor the next day and we had a nice conversation. Looking forward to going there on Sunday. :)--> Thing is, I probably never would think that church was an option, but what I'm hearing here changed my thinking to at least consider it. Jan Jan

I agree Lorna 100%. That is true of anyone though in the Way. I mean, they've made their choices, I'm an outsider now so it really does not matter. God sees all. Jan

Ah,a baptist church. Is it southern or some other kind? What helped you choose this church? Jan

Seems very sad a lot of leaders wives became controlling if they were not already, in order to survive all this. Jan

Hi PersonalEntertainr; Umm. you crave fellowship? It doesn't sound like you are giving people much of a chance here... Jan

Wayfer Not, I can identify with the Pentecostal where people encourage the pastor "preach it, come on, etc." I liked that, it showed people were enthusiastic. Jan
