1 year and 1 month of waiting

1 year and 1 month of waiting

May 08, 2026

The Q & A video the Elders did when they announced my termination. Following my denominational structure, there is a process that should be followed. But they (the church where I was a youth pastor) did not follow. The audio was recorded on the phone by one of my young adult leaders, so you need to bear with the sound.

The next video is my conversation with the District Superintendent. It’s in Bahasa Melayu. They also noted that the process was wrong but they did not want to take any action.

Unfortunately, even with video evidence my termination still stands even if the process was wrong. It’s like the typical cover up culture that continues to live inside churches.

If you want to read more into how this process is dubious, I fed all the relavent documents into Grok to synthesize everything.
