Dear Brothers in Christ:

It appears that this situation has become like the unusual weather of late – wild, unruly, not entirely pleasant or safe, and subject to abrupt and unpredictable changes.

Within the next three days, I will be contacting you by mail concerning a new means of resolving this conflict privately via a combination of telephone facilitation, online communication, and third-party intervention.

So as to avoid needless complication and redundancy, during the initial discussion, it would be advantageous, if possible, to work with you three only – Pastor Billy Russell, former Pastor Ray Leininger, and former Interim Pastor Rodney Reeves

If you are willing to participate and administer in this process, I will need your affirmation of that intention by noon on Monday, March 1, 2010.

Thank you for your assistance in this matter.


Praying for your Wisdom and Integrity,


Marie O’Hara
