    cogic4902, Ex-Florida Air and God Glorified Deacon Impersonates Woman on Facebook.
    A Deacon at God Glorified Church in Takoma Park, set up fake facebook pages committing identity theft. Yes, he will soon be sued the evidence is on facebook.
    He does not use his name, he uses the names and photos of others. This is the same church deacon who stole church tithes, assaulted a woman, he drove around to various post offices in the MD, and D.C., area and mailing death threats. He deliberately made false reports of Terrorism against anyone who ticked him off, including relatives and former church members. He made false reports to IRS against people and churches accusing them of money laundering just to get revenge. However, the concern is his mental decline. He is a 44 year old light skinned African-American man 6’3, 325 lbs., sometimes drives a volvo, cadillac or landrover, and is originally from the Petworth area
    Everything he has or owns was bought, paid for, or given by women, mainly the ones in his family. Although he is a healthy 44 year old, he has refused to get a job and work for over 20 years. He and his mother made up a story pretending he had a trust fund and was taking care of his grandmother. Driving a person to church and running errands do not prevent a real man from getting a job. The pastor at God Glorified is a decent man and does not realize he is being duped. They will eventually take over his church. The deacon and his mother are partners in crime and they are experts at making religious references to get people to let their guard down, dupping them and making it look like someone else did it. The grandmother wanted their pastor to visit her because she wanted to tell the whole hidden story before she passed away, but the deacon and his mother made sure the pastor would never have a private visit with her. The lazy deacon was digruntled because he did not get his deceased grandmother’s house so he and his mother made up a lie and took it to court, they lost their case, got embarassed, and had to pay sanctions. How can a decent Pastor not recognize the devil in his midst? How can the church place a man so dishonest and dangerous on their pulpit? go to youtube/cogic4902 and listen. Pray for everyone

    We all want a sustainable future, but what does it look like, and how do we get there?

    Liz Walker, co-founder of the EcoVillage at Ithaca and co-developer of its three cohousing communities, points the way forward in her new book “Choosing a Sustainable Future.”

    “Choosing a Sustainable Future” looks at sustainability from a “whole systems” approach integrating the three spheres of environmental, economic and social sustainability resulting in a powerful sense of community and sense of place.

    Find out more about this whole systems approach and meet Liz herself at one of the author events in an upcoming book tour sponsored by Mid Atlantic Cohousing May 12-15, 2011 here in the Pennsylvania, Maryland, DC and Virginia areas.

    St. Raphael of Brooklyn Orthodox Church in Chantilly will be welcoming renowned author and speaker Frederica Mathewes-Green for a visit to our area on October 22, 2011. Frederica’s thoughts on topics ranging from abortion and feminism to early Christian spirituality have sparked discussion and stirred the hearts of readers around the world — and have called more than a few Protestants to rediscover the historic roots of their Christian faith. A sought-after speaker and best-selling author, Frederica regularly contributes to a number of publications, including Christianity Today, First Things, and National Review Online, and has been interviewed by the New York Times, the Washington Post, and Diane Rehm. Her books include Facing East; Gender: Men, Women, Sex and Feminism; and The Jesus Prayer: The Ancient Desert Prayer that Tunes the Heart to God.

    Frederica will be speaking at our parish following Vespers (which begins at 6:00 p.m.). She’ll deliver a talk entitled “East, West, East: A Spiritual Journey,” in which she’ll tell the story of how she found her “heart’s true home” in Eastern Orthodox Christianity. Please consider joining us for the talk — we’d be thrilled to see you there!

    If you have any questions regarding Frederica’s visit, please feel free to contact David Reese at (202) 674-0179. You also can contact our priest, Fr. Thomas Palke, at (703) 222-2422. You’ll find our mission at 4429 Brookfield Corporate Drive, #500 Chantilly, VA 20151, and online at http://www.straphaelva.org.
