It is with sadness only that I have recently learned that Columbus Christian Assembly has basically dissolved.
The once flourishing church, close to 200 saints, the most fruitful congregation of the late 1990's and early 2000's in all of greater Ohio, has been decimated. Firstly it was LSM operatives in the aftermath of the Titus Chu quarantine who brought lawsuits against the church. Then, true to form, it was Titus Chu who cut off John Myer, forcing all the young people to choose sides. Lastly, one of the remaining elders attempted to launch the church into totally new areas of pentecostal prosperity, which many saints rejected. Some of the scattered saints have decided to rejoin the LSM group which now owns their former meeting hall.
On a more positive note, "expelled" brothers from Cincinnati and Columbus, including John Myer and Keith Miller, are presently in Uganda caring for believers there. Hopefully they can steer clear of bureaucrats like Titus Chu's boy Vern Yoder of Pittsberg, who once claimed to be the "leading co-worker in Africa." Aren't there enough people in the world, that we don't need to fight over a handful of Christians the other side of the globe?
