Dear friends of Jude2,
For your information, we have resigned our ministry credentials with the Church of God of Prophecy and are moving into a season of ministry with Cross Pointe Ministries in Tupelo, MS. You can visit the church at www.professit.com
We are at peace with this decision and desire your prayers in the days ahead.
Blessings,
The Ables Family

Best to you and your family in your new place of ministry. I know someone that attends there, Keith Seaton. Our families have been friends for many years.

I am not sure I understand the question. I have not served as pastor in two years, thus no buildings involved. We own a grocery business. We are just moving from the organization of COGOP to Cross Pointe Ministries.

Oh, gotcha. I remember hearing that here in MO you had pastored. Don't remember exactly where though.
Well join the club brother, I was prompted to change churches a couple weeks ago and have found some good friends in a local Assembly of God.
Change is necessary sometimes. Not fun, but necessary.

That is where I attend church...(as you well know)... I have been thinking along those lines myself but just can't quite do it... Would you give me (PM if necessary) a little insight as to the why's that really swayed you to your decision.... I don't mean any situation, etc... I don't really know how to ask what I am asking....

What is a Director of Moderations? Just curious.. Thanks
Also, Gate Keepers? Is that like small groups?
Anyway, was just wondering. Thanks... And may God bless you all as you serve HIM and the community of Tupelo...

I believe this is the Head Moderator (there are several moderators). The pastor doesn't moderate services.
Yes, Gate Keepers are small groups. The Gate Keepers are like "watchers over tens" to use old COGOP terminology. They make phone calls, send cards, visit the hospital, arrange food for funerals, etc... Kind of like mini-pastors. It's not just a title. The actually do these things.

Man, that's too bad.
I was so hoping God would stir your heart towards Christway!
I could use another elder. And it would have been awesome to see a work spring up your way as well.
I hope you will still be able to come preach from time to time.

Why not? I'm preaching at a Church of God on the last Sunday in this month.

I think this is just so "cool" ministers ministering in different organizations. Means we are coming into more of the unity of the faith then we probably realize.
My husband and son in law both ministered at the COG when we were going there when the Pastor had to leave for what ever the reason or went on vacation.
