Explaining the Unbearable Lightness of The CORE Lutheran Church

At first, St. Peter Freedom and the CORE operated as two separate entities. Now, suddenly, the BORE is "the downtown campus of St. Peter." Why is that?

After speaking with several members at St. Peter, it seems they can see the reason why. The BORE is one giant money vacuum, currently being attended by 150 (not 200, Glende, anonymous Appleton pastor). Of those 150, 135 are already financially supporting their home WELS congregation.

Ski has 10 months of funding left. There is clearly no way his sandbox will be able to support itself under the current conditions after that big, initial wad of loot runs out.

So, the obvious plan is for "the downtown campus of St. Peter" to be incorporated into St. Peter's budget after the BORE's original stash runs out.

The question is, will the members of St. Peter really be dumb enough to support an obvious failure like the BORE, which was only designed to steal WELS members and isn't even doing very well in that department? Or will they say "enough is enough" when the original misguided gift runs out -- and let the "downtown campus" of their church close?

By the way, how far gone is WELS in Appleton when you have a pastor like this leaving these kinds of comments? It really shows the true nature of the Pseudo-Baptists in the Fox Vally.

***

GJ - Columbus, Ohio paved the way, with Floyd Luther Stolzenburg (at the non-WELS church Glende attended) lying about his divorce and being kicked out of the LCMS ministerium - for cause. Stolzenburg, needless to say, was a CG guru that WELS fawned over, but no one ever explained why.

Glende and Ski should explain their relationship to the fake Ichabod blog.

Unlikely St. Peter would support it. Thats why they needed a donor in the first place. Plus, they are looking to expand in several years as well to solve over-crowding problems.
