Got a prayer request for a family here in california that moved from arizona. They were mislead by a "pastor" that the family will be taking over a church.. Thanks for your ears and prayers.. Reason for this post? I want this "pastor" to be held (not just in Heaven when GOD judges him and his family) ACCOUNTABLE for what they did to this family...... 

Over a period of time in the past i have mentioned about a church that mislead a family to come to california to take over a church of a "retiring" "pastor" and his family.. This "pastor" told them that they would be taking over the church within a year (its been about three years since then) and the story kept changing from one year to two years to five years to now recently by 2009.. This pastor also had "special" speakers come to his church saying to the "pastor" and his family that "they had a lot more years of service in them" and some of the speakers would pray over the family that came from another state as "ministers of music" and the "pastor" nor his family made and mention of the family from arizona taking over the church..Then the "pastor" says behind the pulpit "its in GODS timing for HIS calling, not yours" Yeah the family that was mislead is from arizona..

No mention to anyone that visited the church as guests speakers or other pastor that the family from out of state would be taking over the church.. I have mentioned to my wife in the past two and a half years that i felt that the "pastor" was misleading this family and that they would never be taking over the church.. The "pastors" sermons were of talking about how bad other churches are and how "he" loved to provoke others and still dose.. (that is why i left the church, among the fact that the "pastor" was misleading this family) The church never holds COMMUNION (an IMPORTANT PART OF BEING A CHRISTIAN) and no plays for the kids.. If there ever was any kind of outreach the "pastor" and his family would not be a part of it and make excuses as "we are going hunting that week" and "we are going to be out of town".. And the out of state family was incharge of the outreach with NO support from other members of the "church" (we couldnt since we are limited on something's) in any outreach or activities unless it was fireworks for the fourth of July.. (fundraiser for the church)

Recently the family from arizona had a meeting with the "pastor" and his wife.. The out of state family was telling the "pastor" that they were leaving the church since the church was not growing.. The "pastor" got upset and gave the family till the second of January to get out of the home they live in now.. Other details of the meeting WILL NOT BE MENTIONED SINCE IT IS CONFIDENTIAL AND PERSONAL INFORMATION.. The "pastor" threatened the family with a threat to not take the job from the Assembly of GOD church also in that area of california or they will hold this family accountable for past actions within the family.. Funny this "pastor" wants to threaten someone's family with accountability but this "pastor" has NO ACCOUNTABILITY of his own..his daughter angie loves to spread gossip about anyone.. Who is this "pastor"? his name is:  lonnie j ferguson of the "trinity family fellowship" in arvin california.. Its a "pentecostal" church.. NO ACCOUNTABILITY FOR his ACTIONS both PAST AND PRESENT!!

This "pastor" and his family has a bad reputation in the past and now apparently in the present.. No one holds them ACCOUNTABLE.. My inlaws left that church in the past for problems that arose in the past but came back for personal reasons.. Now with a threat on this out of state family by the ferguson's.. This family may not be able to take up the assistant pastor position at the assembly of GOD.. This families lives are being messed up because of a threat from the fergusons.. GOD WILL HOLD THE fergusons ACCOUNTABLE!! HOPEFULLY SOONER RATHER THEN LATER!! ESPECIALLY FOR MISLEADING THIS FAMILY AND FOR ALL THE CRAP THE "pastor" and his family WERE NEVER HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR, FROM THE PAST TO NOW!! I know, it rains on the just and the unjust.. Good and Bad things happen to everyone.. But this "pastor" thinks he and his family can just keep going on doing anything he wants to with no ACCOUNTABILITY!!

I know i have to forgive them or GOD wont forgive me.. I know that.. But in the present, i am TICKED OFF!! I am better then i was when i first got the information before i started writing on here.. I am cooled down a little.. I went through this crap at liberty university when i was told to "drop the charges or else".. Didnt think it could happen on the west coast too to another family in the case of being mislead (in their situation).. This family from arizona gave the church a computer when they first came to arvin along with two flat screen tv's.. Along with other work this family did for the church.. This is why im ticked.. To come all the way out here for NOTHING!! (just to make things clear, its not about me or my family, I AM FROM HAWAI'I not arizona) To think that the fergusons are keeping this family away by threats from their family here in california..

PLEASE PRAY FOR THIS FAMILY FROM ARIZONA!! Pray that GOD will hold this "pastor" and his family ACCOUNTABLE (ok they will be ACCOUNTABLE in HEAVEN when GOD judges them, i know that..) for what they did to this family.. Pray that the family from Arizona will be able to take the "assistant pastors" position with no harm done to this family.. Or another leadership position that is NOT far from his family here in california..

Mahalo for your ears....... Keep this family in your prayers... For GOD to bless them and keep them safe..
