As far as begging for donations, go to the church & hear it for yourself. Pitman is announcing it from the pulpit every Sunday.
Find out the name of the Janitor & ask him why he was fired with a month's pay, & who fired him. Don't be surprised if, down the road, that Janitor (his name will be made public by that time) & some of those families end up suing the church.
If the things that have been reported in the paper wasn't true, why hasn't Pitman spoken up? He hasn't because he can't w/o looking like a fool.
I would be screaming all over the roof tops if I were a Christian about this whole sorry mess. It has nothing to do with being a believer or not being a believer. It's all about a Pastor pretending to be something he's not, & another Pastor possibly hearing a hint of what was going on & doing nothing.
If God is real & the Bible is true, that church will fall & the Atheist will have nothing to do with it.

Nothing wrong with the Pastor announcing the accounts exist from the pulpit. Church members may WANT to help. How was that "begging for donations"? What exactly did he say from the pulpit last Sunday? Did you hear it? Do you actually KNOW? I suspect not...
And about that Janitor we keep hearing about. Why was he (or she) not interviewed by the police as a part of this investigation? Why did he (or she) not go to the police when he saw what he allegedly saw and was "fired" for it? Why hasn't he (or she) spoken publicly about what they know? I'm sure the TD would love to cover that story…
It appears that the Pastor is doing what he can to assist the victims and their families and focusing on them, rather than being worried about public opinion.
BTW, you never did say how you knew whose name was on the forms at the bank that opened these funds. You said on multiple occasions that it was Pitman. How do you know that? Do you know who controls the money at HPBC? Once again, I suspect not….
