We, the undersigned members, saints, and partners of Mamelodi Assembly - Spoken Word Distribution, write this petition with heavy hearts but with great respect for the leadership of the church.

We have learned with shock and sadness about the decision by the elders to expel / fire our Pastor, Pastor Erastus Makuwa, from his rightful pastoral position.,

We humbly petition as follows:

1. WE OBJECT TO THE EXPULSION
We believe the decision to expel Pastor Erastus Makuwa was not in the best interest of the church and the congregation he has faithfully shepherded. His removal has caused confusion, pain, and division among the members.

2. HIS SERVICE AND CONTRIBUTION
Pastor Erastus Makuwa has served this assembly with dedication, integrity, and love for the Word of God and for the people. Under his leadership, many souls have been won, families restored, and the church has grown spiritually.

3. OUR REQUESTWe, therefore, formally request that:

a) The elders immediately STOP and REVERSE the expulsion/firing of Pastor Erastus Makuwa.
b) Pastor Erastus Makuwa be RESTORED with immediate effect to his rightful position as Pastor of Mamelodi Assembly - Spoken Word Distribution, with all his pastoral rights, duties and respect.
c) That any issues or charges against him, if any, be handled in a fair, transparent, and biblical manner with proper representation and with the involvement of the congregation, according to Matthew 18:15-17.

We believe in order, authority, and respect for elders, but we also believe in justice, fairness, and love. We do not seek division, we seek unity and restoration.We pray that you will hear our voice as the flock of this assembly.We remain faithful members of the church.
