Into Integrity--Interim FAST Update 2

Join Together!
Stand up--Speak out--Live in integrity

Warm greetings!

The prayers and the calls for integrity and action continue during this Interim period. Even as they have over the last 12 years.

In this Update we feature the comments of several colleagues who have expressed their strong support for us and the Into Integrity FAST. We have asked their permission to share their private comments anonymously. (see below)

Part One of the FAST (6-26 June 2019) was done by Kelly. But for Part Two of the FAST (6-26 December 2019) there will be plenty of opportunity to join together and to publicly and privately share your comments in light of the calls for integrity, disclosures, and righting the wrongful dismissals. Note also that the United Nations International Anti-Corruption Day is 9 December.

Be sure to check out the latest PETRA People weblog (August-September 2019) which includes the summaries/links to the seven podcasts and seven blogposts that Kelly did in June 2019. It also presents the three ongoing efforts to confront corruption and the international NCI et al fraud: the Professional Review, the Healing the Body summary-summons, and the Integrity Petition.

Comments from Colleagues

Thank you for all the podcasts. Thank you for your courage in standing for the truth….May God bless and honour you...The authoritarian style of leadership seems to be a serious problem in many Christian organizations and churches. When problems are covered over and no questions allowed, accountability rests with other leaders who may be complicit in the problem. Boards seem to lack the courage to do what is right. No wonder trust in leadership is so eroded and gifted staff walk away. My condolences to you both. May God grant you special grace.

Well done in this fast. May the Lord help and strengthen you.

Thank you for all the podcasts. Thank you for your courage in standing for the truth. The verse you quote yesterday - Zechariah 8:16,19 - is so appropriate. “These are the things you are to do: Speak the truth to each other and render true and sound judgment in your courts; do not plot evil against each other, and do not love to swear falsely. I hate all this,” declares the Lord… “Therefore love truth and peace.” May God bless and honour your commitment to stand and may He answer our prayers. And now may you be blessed and protected in recovery. Many blessings and much love to you.

Praying for you, Kelly and Michele as you undergo this fast and hunger strike. Praying that the Lord will be moved to use it powerfully. Praying for peace and for a greater perception of the LORD and His ways.

We have accompanied you in this situation and really pray that the Lord will bring healing and restoration.

I’m thinking and continuing to pray with you in your fast and your call to action.  I wanted to share something the Lord has put on my heart, I wrote it today…There are times when we need to take a stand.  It may not be pleasant.  It may even get nasty.  You may be a recipient of malice or labeled a trouble maker.  Yet with humility and prayerful action your stand will mean more in the end. The reward to faithfulness is more work, more influence, and greater faith in the Holy One, Matthew 25: 14-30.  I hope this is an encouragement to you.

Courage on your path - this is a brave undertaking for a noble cause. Love and light,

I believe that this is making a significant difference in attention to the matter of moral integrity over moral bankruptcy.  I believe this approach is making deeper inroads than before, both from your end of fasting/striking and the truth that I have not missed a single podcast.  I marinade in them.  You are not just speaking to the choir but tympanically resonating and drawing out precisely what my soul yearns most for.  It is in direct harmony with yours, my friend.  Keep this up.  May the Lord rejoice in speaking your name among the saints that have gone before us.

Thanks for what you are doing in standing for integrity. It feels, as you send the updates, that a breakthrough is coming. Thank you for your tenacity on behalf of righteousness. Praying the Lord encourages and strengthens you during this time. That you see with your eyes the correction of injustice. Bless you both.

What's Next? Join Together!

You will have an opportunity to join together with us and others during Part Two of the Into Integrity FAST. The dates are 6-26 December 2019. Note also that the United Nations International Anti-Corruption Day is 9 December.

We encourage you to fast/strike for one or more of the 20 days with us. Focus on an area of integrity important for you as well as on the specific NCI fraud and dismissals that continue to be publicly challenged in the Into Integrity FAST. Stay tune for details. Please share your ideas about a fast/strike that works for you.

Thank you for your prayers, encouragement, and support. 

Stand up. Speak out. Live in integrity.

Please spread the word.

The purpose of the Into Integrity FAST is to call attention to--and confront--the lack of disclosures by specific organizations/leaders/people affected by the international Nordic Capital Investment KB fraud (NCI) as well as the related, wrongful dismissals directed at Kelly and Michele. Join with us in FAsting for genuine contrition and STriking for resolute action within the Church Mission Community (CMC).

Integrity is moral wholeness—living consistently in moral wholeness. Corruption is moral rottenness, the opposite of integrity--the distortion, perversion, and deterioration of moral goodness, resulting in the exploitation of people.
