Roderick C. Meredith - A Biographical Sketch

By Redfox

Disfellowshiped Ambassador Report publishers, 'co-publishers
Bob Gerringer, Bill Hughes, John Trechak, and Len and Margaret
Zola received disfellowship letters from Roderick Meredith'
(AR#8).
Dorothy tried to communicate with her father via Meredith but
was unable to do so (AR9 June 1979).
He inaccurately accused Leona McNair of being responsible for
her divorce from Raymond McNair. This would begin her court
case against WCG (AR29 October 1984) (AR28 July 1984
'McNair Trial Begins').
In the March 27, 1979 Pastor General's Report, pp. 1-2 Meredith
calls for the members to produce more money, suggesting various
possibilities such as 'painting houses, cleaning houses, ironing,
mending, etc., washing cars, selling farm products, artwork,
babysitting, conducting paper drives, yard and garage sales, bake
sales, quilting bees, collecting scrap iron, delivering sales papers
or advertisements for local firms, etc.' to raise extra funds to
continue WCG's court case to find a way to get out of the
Receivership. Headquarters ministers, despite this financial crisis,
nevertheless proceed to take flights to various congregations.
Meredith himself goes to Cincinnati. (xHWA, 'The 1979
Receivership and the Big 3', Escaping Armstrongism, December
24, 2008).
Some of the members in Hawaii left WCG due to the turmoil
affecting the organization, despite Meredith's attempts to
maintain power over them (The "Plain Truth" about Hawaii, The
Painful Truth [atheist/agnostic/deist]).
