I received a letter dated 29/4/2017 from you, in which you considered our affiliation to the church as subscribing members and consequently snatched us from the pastorate and other rights. I and my family had to contest your decision with a heavy heart with the following points:- 1. According to the letter sent by you on 28/3/2017, you said: “I am debarring and disassociating the family of Mr. K.K. Masih, Anita Masih and their wards from the church membership with immediate effect”.
