Dishonest and cowardly “Central Baptist Church” in Sydney, Australia, refused to welcome a Christian single man to fellowship, presumably because he is interested in opposite-gender Christian marriage. The “Central Baptist Church” lacks the necessary courage to declare openly that Torsten is not welcome to their church.

(http://www.centralbaptist.org.au)

 

 

 

In addition to a visit to a Sunday evening “service” on November 10th, 2013, in Central Baptist Church, where a handwritten welcome card was hand-delivered to their usher, Torsten also sent an email inquiry to their church office, inquiring about opportunities for Christian fellowship. After several reminding emails to the Central Baptist Church, it is apparent that Central Baptist Church lacks courage to declare openly that Torsten is not welcome to their church.

Hi!

 

You have refused to welcome me. You have refused to answer my two email questions. And you have refused to respond to the welcome card that I handed over to your church volunteers inside the church, where I wrote my contact details and requested to be contacted regarding fellowship groups.

 

It is obvious that your "church" has excommunicated me, but that your church has decided to not reveal the reason for your excommunication against me.

 

What is the reason that Central Baptist Church in Sydney has excommunicated me?

Torsten Nenzen

Christian meetings

 

Dear Central Baptist Church,

 

Hi.

 

I am a Christian single man here in Sydney. I seek a Christian community in Sydney where I also might find opportunities to fellowship, socialise, meet and talk with other Christian singles.

 

Are there opportunities in your congregation where also single Christians can meet and communicate - and build relationships?

 

Are there fellowship groups, community groups, cell groups or small groups that I can attend?

 

Best regards,

 

Torsten Nenzén
