The church in Cranka can invite Pope Benedict the 16th. That would be strange, but they have the right to do it. My point is that we respect the local church, we don’t step on the administration of the local church. There are elders in the church. So, the work does not dictate to the church."

For example say you're the Church in Vista, you may invite anyone you want. The co-workers would have to respect this local church and not dictate nor recommend who the Church in Vista should or should not receive.
