Jones Scam
Another General Board Staff Implicated
Merlyn Kettering is no longer alone among the Brethren caught up in the turmoil of African based controversy. It has come to the attention of the Gospel Messenger that Phil Jones' name has been linked to the Nigerian 4-1-9 scam, often seen in internet spam messages. In this case, the scam takes the form of a fraudulent lottery promotion. While Phil Jones may be a common name, the Church of the Brethren does have a long history in Nigeria.

Jones Arrest
Questioning Jones Questioning
The Gospel Messenger has been unable to confirm whether Phil Jones has been questioned by the US State Department in regards to the whereabouts of Merlyn Kettering following his recent arrest. Efforts to obtain a comment from the Brethren Church in the USA proved fruitless.

Oil for Peace
 | The strapped for cash General Board has announced that is in the early stages of negotiations to sell the oil rights to it's New Windsor and Elgin properties. The income garnered from the deal could help restore much of the programs that have been reduced due to a lack of funds. Ironically, the Board will not be examining the environmental impact in any great detail because of its recent, drastic cut backs to the Brethren Witness Office. |
