Thanks ChangedAgain
and since this there was a name changes:
Yes, Rick Holbrook is now listed as Chief Executive Officer, Karen Seboldt as Secretary and Steve Seboldt as Treasurer. The latest Statement of Information (SI) was filed January 18, 2018.
I have not researched myself yet, but have the names changed as of the resignations and cancelled ordinations, now, on this kind of document?
I know some people were told to sign agreements - I'm a blank as to what they called them. ( Basically promising not to tattletale.) Does anyone have any updates on those documents? ( Or am I just behind and missed the most current updates?)
