ICGC Pastor Jumps Through Church Window

It has emerged that Dr. Sadick Arthur, the embattled Senior Pastor of the Springfield branch of the International Central Gospel Church (ICGC), in Virginia, U.S.A, on Sunday October 29, squeezed his body through a small window and fled from the wrath of the Board of Directors who had locked him up to demand accountability of his management of the church's funds.

His action shocked the Board of Directors as they watched the 'Man of God' meander his way and landed on the well-carpeted worship grounds and to the unsuspecting congregation.

Pastor Sadick later ate humble pie; apologizing to the congregation for using the pulpit to bash his critics the previous Sunday in his 'Boom Speech'. He had incurred the wrath of his congregation for calling them 'fornicators’,’ adulterers' and 'non-entities' following an earlier resolution signed by the Board restricting him from tinkering with the funds of the church for his personal use.

That sermon generated angry reactions and saw the church's Sunday offering dwindling by more than 80% on subsequent Sundays and dealing a devastating blow to the image of ICGC.

The church is literary down on its kneels now as members continue to desert the church daily due to the Senior Pastor's belligerence, arrogance and abuse of the church's funds for his personal benefit. Investigations continue.
