I'm trying to reach Sister Sure Reese Mayfield.

Who is this?

Deacon Bowes from the from the church.

Deacon who?

From the church.

From our church.

Yes, yes, ma'am.

Okay.

From from from here.

Can you hear me good?

This old phone don't work with work good.

Yeah, my phone okay.

Okay, that I call it the deacon board and had a meeting as well as uh pass a st And uh they didn't have a meeting and they come to the understanding that uh they gonna ask you to not come to church right now 'cause that about that them boys of your Eric and James being in jail the way they is and won't uh want you to just uh I don't know if they gonna suspend you from

church right now, but they uh they think it put a bad look on the church.

My kids being in jail put a bad look on the church.

Well that's what that's what's what they that's what they come up with.

Now we had a meeting with the deacon board and with Pastor Stoves.

I don't understand why y'all have a meek meeting about my kids in the church.

What my kids got to do with the church.

Well, what we trying to do is show a good example to the youth that we got there.

Okay, you can show a good example by me being there paying my tithes and offering.

Well, that's another thing that been brought to our attention that we're gonna be calling a lot of members about it.

People not paying the tithe the way they pose.

I'll pay my tithes.

I don't know, I don't know who told you that, Deacon Barnes.

I don't even know, first of all, who you are, and I'm not trying to be mean to you, and I don't I don't even understand why you how you even got my phone number.

Well no, let's I pay my tithe, I pay my offering, go on your computer at the church, call your secretary or whoever.

Well let me uh let me uh let me ask you this, just maybe do you pay your tithe according to what you make?

Yes, I do.

Check the books.

Well well what now what it is we can't check the books if we don't know exactly what you make is what I'm saying.

What I make is my distance between me and Jesus.

I give him his ten percent, and that's all Mars Hill need to know.

I I understand exactly where you come from, but now the the main issue on table is about these boys and and and being uh, you know, disruptive the way they are, they don't want that to be to to to bleed over into the youth quiet.

Wait a minute, wait a minute.

minute.

Uh, first of all, I would appreciate if you would have Pastor to tell me this himself.

And then second of all, if somebody kids is having trouble in the world or whatever, y'all supposed to pray for them, not put them out the church or they mama.

Well I'm I'm uh well I'm we gonna we gonna pray for and we're gonna pray for you too.

But we don't want this to shed over to the youth that we got that's doing good with the Well I'm gonna keep coming.

Y'all can't stop me from coming to the church.

I'm gonna keep coming so I don't know who you talking to and you tell Pastor to call me himself and tell me I can't come to

and you have nobody calling me telling me that I can't come to hill that is a free church.

I'm gonna get the pastor called up now that you get the pastor to call me because you have no business calling me telling me that I can't come to God's house.

Well sister mayfield I don't want you to get in no up roll with me.

I'm not getting I'm not getting angry with nobody I work I don't work 18, 16 hours today.

I don't have task nobody calling me telling me that I can't come to a church that I pay my task and offering it.

Not that I own the church I pay my tasks because that's that's due to God but y'all really making me upset by telling me I can't come now because of my kids in their troubles.

I wasn't at church because I had overstept and why is that any of your business you go being in up roll with me again.

I don't know who this is how could you call somebody about church business over the phone?

This don't make sense.
