Devilish “International Baptist Church” in Hong Kong, in reality banned a Christian (who is absolutely innocent in relation to all excommunications by churches) from attendance in public meetings and fellowship. The Baptist pastor requested a private meeting with the innocent Christian to assess if the Christian might be permitted to attend public meetings or fellowship.

banned from public meetings?

 

International Baptist Church HK.

 

William Pritchard,

 

You have chosen to not be absolutely clear regarding your conditions for my visiting your public meetings to socialise and talk freely with others. I assume, therefore, that you have banned me, but that you don't want to be upfront about it.

 

Are you indeed saying that I am NOT welcome to visit your church's public meetings on Sundays and talk freely with people prior to speaking with you privately so that you can decide if I am suitable to attend the public meetings, and that I must speak with you privately before I might be allowed to attend a small group?

 

Regards,

 

Torsten Nenzen

William Pritchard,

 

My answer to your question regarding openness/willingness to meet you for the purpose of assessment is primarily, but not exclusively, dependent on your answer to my question.

 

Please answer.

International Baptist Church HK,

 

William Pritchard,

 

It sounds from your response that you are saying (B).

 

Please just be upfront clear and declare the conditions of your church in relation to my person:

 

(A) I am welcome to visit your church's public meetings on Sundays and talk freely with people, but I must speak with you privately before I might be allowed to attend a small group.

OR

(B) I am NOT welcome to visit your church's public meetings on Sundays and talk freely with people prior to speaking with you privately so that you can decide if I am suitable to attend the public meetings, and I must of course speak with you privately before I might be allowed to attend a small group.

 

A or B?

welcome or banned ?

 

Hi Will Pritchard,

 

I just wanted to know if I am still welcome to participate in small groups, or if your church has changed its mind to ban me from fellowship.

 

Many churches in HK have recently banned me from their "services" although I am absolutely innocent to any wrongdoing within their churches, and I am absolutely innocent in relation to all excommunications by all other churches.

 

There is no point from my perspective to meet, unless I know that I am welcome to freely participate in fellowship.

 

Am I welcome to participate in small groups?

 

Regards,

 

Torsten Nenzen

Hello,

 

You did not reply to my enquiry regarding a possible change of mind towards excommunication.

 

Have you banned me from your church?

William Pritchard,

 

Hi,

 

Thanks for replying.

 

I would like to participate in small groups where also single Christian females fellowship. When and where do you meet?

 

Because of a lack of information in response from you, I am wondering if maybe your church also has excommunicated me. Most English-speaking churches in Hong Kong have already excommunicated me.

 

Have you banned me from your church?

 

Regards,

 

Torsten Nenzen

Re: Christian meetings

 

Dear Torsten,

 

Thank you for your email. We do have a number of fellowship groups that you are welcome to join either during the week or after the Church service on Sunday at our office bulling. We do have a small but mature, in faith, young adult group and university students that have return back to Hong Kong. We also have a number of Graduate Students from Hong Kong University that fellowship with us.

 

Feel free to join us on a Sunday and then Perry and I would introduce to different groups in our Body.

 

Blessings,

William Pritchard

Christian meetings

 

Dear International Baptist Church,

 

Hi.

 

I am a Christian here in Hong Kong. I seek a Christian community in Hong Kong where I might find opportunities to fellowship, socialise, meet and talk with also Christian singles.

 

Are there occasions of fellowship in your congregation where also single Christians in the age bracket 30-39 (maybe also late 20’s) gather and communicate? Are there fellowship groups, community groups, cell groups or small groups in your church that I can attend and develop friendships?

 

Best regards,

 

Torsten Nenzén
