Upper Room Church an update, Bill Gates Foundation rejects Church in need!
Upper Room Church an update, Bill Gates Foundation rejects Church in need!
You know I received a nice lil message from
Tammy Rodriguez Youth Pastor of the Upper Room Church in Hayward. Evidently they had received an email from the "Bill Gates Foundation" rejecting their claim!
OK, WTF? Pardon the Pun, but Bill Gates has more money than God! Why in the world would his foundation, reject a little churches request of help? You might be saying well, everyone needs help? Well, Yes but this is a lil Church a small place or worship, a place for people to gather, a place who brings comfort & joy, Peace and Love into people's lives.
Cannot someone out their help them out?
The freakin Government is throwing billions in Iraq killing people, for what?
but these people cannot get help from a corporation here in Silicon Valley? OK, this is a local hot button issue here people, Why not pass this lil post to everyone you can, Stumble it, Digg it, give them my link to my blog here, Perhaps if we make some noise, OK a lot of noise, with YOUR help someone might pay attention and listen?
I'd hate to see this Church closed down because of corporate greed and an unwillingness to help its neighbor and other fellow Americans. Don't mess with God's house, I tell you these places are scared, I really feel for these people here.. here is my orginal post here
Reach out & Touch Yolanda Williams
Past week at the Annual Kennedy Center Honors. It was brillant, Yolanda paying tribute to Diana Ross. Yolanda is a Gospel singer. I dedicate this lil song to The Upper Room Church
be blessed guys~

Hello and God bless my name is Johnny Gonzales and I just want to say thank you very very much for putting our church on this page. I pray that God Blesses you .We need all the help we can get
Hello Johnny I'm Christina or Harleyblues,
your story about your congregation and your Church just pulled at my heart~ I'm praying that something wonderful comes for you guys,over there in Hayward. I cannot believe you were turned down by the Bill Gates Foundation?~ Well we all know what I think about that, heavy sign. I truly hope someone comes to your aid.
Yes Mr.Gates will not spend his money in Califonia. He rather spend it in Seattle , and that's what his email said
That is just awful & SAD!~
well, I sure will not be buying Microsoft products in the future
Good evening our church's news cast is on you tube now if you want to check them out.. It's under church in need (Upper Room Church) channel 11 and also channel 2
posting this on my blog~
If you really knew how this church operates you may think differently. They literally have run people out of their place of "refuge" due to not being able to control them, among other reasons. It is a sad situation but people who donated hundreds of dollars (my family included)to get that church built have now been rejected by them and run out by them. They are only loving if you follow everything they say and do-and alot of it unfortunately is not biblical. It's a church of religion not a church of our free love to God.
Thank you so much for posting the news cast God will bless you. Thank you for all your help. Feel free to visit us anytime and meet all of us
Hey Annymous!
that has bad feelings on this Church, you know, who cares what religion or sect someone is? wether it be Catholic, Protestant, Muslim,(sp) Buddist, etc. There is only one God and as long as someones heart is in it for the Good and not using God & Religion to kill, let people pray & worship the way they want to, right? I'm sorry you lost your money, as you say, Perhaps you can ask them for a refund?

Well Harleyblues it's Johnny I have been the church's drummer for 20+ years. My boy's were raised there and there good kids this church has taught my boy's respect and love for everyone.So i got to say this, if your a christian help God's people and move on. Ok please don't kick a brother when he's down. Jesus is coming sooner than you think there is no time for he said she said, God bless you all. Mr are Mrs anonymous don't let the devil use you. That's all I have to say
