I cant imagine how difficult it is for Morgan Montgomery's father to speak before the kids at LCG's summer camp in Ohio.
Exposing the underbelly of Armstrongism in all of its wacky glory! Nothing you read here is made up. What you read here is the up to date face of Herbert W Armstrong's legacy. It's the gritty and dirty behind the scenes look at Armstrongism as you have never seen it before! With all the new crazy self-appointed Chief Overseers, Apostles, Prophets, Pharisees, legalists, and outright liars leading various Churches of God today, it is important to hold these agents of deception accountable.

Late this afternoon, Dr. Douglas Winnail reported that the day went well for the youth at the Ohio Living Youth Camp. The kids are sobered by yesterday’s tragic accident but are coping well. Dr. Winnail gave the youth spiritual support today when he took the Christian Living Class. The ministry has provided individual counseling as needed and group counseling in each dorm.
Dr. Meredith, Mr. Ames and the headquarters team has been in close contact with LYC leadership to support our campers and those affected however we can, and additional ministry is traveling to the camp in the next two days, including Dr. Roderick Meredith who will arrive at the camp on Wednesday. Dr. Meredith has sent a letter to all the Church members today.
Camp leadership anticipates that camp will continue through its planned term. Please continue to pray for the campers, for the staff and for the Montgomery family.
