3-in-a-Day: Menlo Park Church

Salvete.

Whereas I wanted to do one post a day, there is far, far too much to cover. So here I go with another 3-in-a-day.

This post will be about the Menlo Park Church. Today, I learned that it plans to secede from the PCUSA. A few years ago, my old church seceded from the PCUSA. Apparently it is an enormous movement now, one that is continuing to grow. I'm very happy to see the church being purified as it breaks its chains from denomination and liberalism. I'm also very concerned with the political charge and the political power of the PCUSA, as well as for the future of the seceding churches. Our church, like Menlo Park Church and undoubtedly many others, had to war for property with the PCUSA, since the denomination cannot let go from its power. This sapped our morale and energy.
It also left our church with little direction. While we were finally off the wrong direction, our leadership grew too powerful, and our congregation seemed to agree with our pastor on almost every point. There was no more discussion, and eventually our old church took a turn for the worse. In the end, we left our old church because we thought its direction was dangerous.
This is what I believe may happen to Menlo Park Church. Sure, it no longer follows anti-Christian principles, but it will determine its own future. I wait with eager anticipation at the future of Menlo Church. Please, pray for Menlo Park Church that it may not be corrupted like the PCUSA.
