Rev. Jimmy Creech
 

 




 On April 24th, 1999, Rev. Jimmy Creech co-officiated
at our Holy Union. Our celebration was held at
Olin T. Binkley Memorial Baptist Church in Chapel Hill,
and was essentially a covenant ceremony / worship service of the
United Church of Christ under the direction of our pastor, Rev. Jill Edens.

As a result of participating in our service and for providing us a
ministerial blessing, charges were brought against Jimmy Creech by the
United Methodist Church, Nebraska conference.
