92-year-old woman kicked out of church for not tithing ................................ LOCAL 12 ............................ Youtube ........ Aug 14, 2015 ........................... BAINBRIDGE, Ga. (WALB/CNN Newsource/WKRC) -- Josephine King is no longer considered a member of the First African Baptist Church of Bainbridge, Georgia, read Gerald Simmons. The letter was addressed to his aunt, 92-year-old Josephine King. The letter, signed by Senior Pastor Derrick Mike, stated that Ms. King "has shown non-support" towards the church in the areas of "constant and consistent financial and physical participation." "She was stunned. She was disappointed. She was shocked," said Simmons. He said Ms. King was considered sick and a shut-in for several months, which explained her lack of attendance. He also said his aunt had gone above and beyond in the past to financially support the church. "You shouldn't chase the individuals down," said Simmons. "You shouldn't do that. If that's the case, you're money hungry." Simmons said he knows his aunt isn't the first person to receive a letter of removal for not tithing, and hopes her story will shed some light on the policy. "You got to have money to make these churches run, but it's not about money, Simmons said. "It's about God. You have to put God first." Several requests for comment from the church were made, but no responses by officials or other members were given.
