Dear Sir, it is with humility I write this letter to you, and it pertains to the little observations of some ills with some of our churches (RCCG) around the country. But before I proceed, let me take a little moment to commend your effort in making and raising Godly children even at the face of world's opposition. May I salute your courage for the gospel and your vision for all Redeemers to be able to make heaven. Your humility has been a type that is so rare to find among so many men of God of this generation, and your astounding faith is worthy of emulation.
What then are the ills in our churches?
1.)Go-A-Fishing; Why do most newly planted churches pack up despite efforts put in place to plant such churches. I'm of the opinion that it is better not to plant than to plant and eventually pack up. What solution do i profer?. We shouldn't just plant churches and forget them, newly planted churches are like babies, which need milk and good nurturing for growth. At least, let us keep nurturing them till they are of age. Again how do we nurture them? Let's take a hint from the Baptist, they keep sending certain percentage of the members of the old church to the newly planted church to worship with them every sunday until they are fully certain that the church is able to stand on its own.
2.)Our leaders; Please sir, we don't need leaders who will always come and brag about what God is using them for. They should all take a cue from your own humility. Because being in charge or parish, zone, area, province or region is nothing compared with the heart they have to serve. We need them not only to preach but to do/act. Christianity as a lifestyle is not just partitioned to the church alone. They should not continue to act holy in church and otherwise outside.
3.)Member's grievances; Sir, aside the above points, let's give hear to what our members need to say. It's like the organogram of this great church is not giving the members to voice out their expectations and what they think. I think we need that in order to evaluate how far we've been impacting.
4.)Unity; There seems to be certain unsaid discord within the church environment. I don't know, but I sense that. Sir, we should continue to hammer on unity and forgiveness. Those are the very essence of our living.
May we all be partakers of His eternal glory.

OP,

You can edit to include which ministry you are talking about.

RCCG? Winners? Salvation Ministry?
