    What caused you to leave your church?

    Our family left because women were teaching and then they even ordinated women. Also, the leaders are not making separation to things which are not Biblical. We have our first own service next Sunday with Word, prayer, Agape Meal and communion. We are not happy to leave. It is hard, but we are...

    Peace!
