By Redfox
UCG-IA [was] formed in the spring of 1995. It was a devastating
blow to the GCG; they had hoped that most of those WCG
ministers and congregations would come to their organization,
but only a few did. Many ministers had worked for Mr. Meredith
before and did not want to work for him again' (Norman Edwards,
Servants’ News, Jan/Feb 2000: Continuing the Work of the
Worldwide Church of God Part 2).
Interview with In Transition, in issue 7 and issue 9.
May 8: Articles of Incorporation amended upon approval by
Board of Directors.
Dibar Apartian, Daniel Barnes, Maurice Benson, Raymond E.
Clore, Lambert Greer, Dr. Floyd Lochner, Rand Millich, James
Taylor and Don Turk joins GCG (AR59 June 1995).
1996: Norman Edwards, author of the 'Friends from
Pasadena' letter, leaves GCG. He writes a paper, 'How the
