The 2014 Deposition of Jericho Church Secretary/ C.O.O. Alma Denise Killen: The Undisputed Boss of the New Hireling

Alma Denise Killen – Jericho church Secretary turned C.O.O. and Chairman of the Board of Thieves is the Boss of the New Hireling Jasmine Sculark. Wait until the new hireling clashes with that Jezebel Spirit on Alma Denise Killen.

If there was ever any doubt in anyone’s mind that this was in fact a hostile takeover, read Alma Denise’s 2014 testimony starting on page 161, she outlines the hostile takeover blueprint.

Beginning on Page 30, in her 2014 deposition Alma Denise Killen says that the Apostle was running the church up until the day she died.  But in her 2011 deposition she said, because of Apostle’s condition she would not have asked her to make any major decisions during the last months of her life. If that was the case why did Alma Denise use an electronic signature as authorization on a bank signature card 5 days before Apostle Betty died and fax it to the bank, to get herself as the signer on the churches accounts???

This question begs to be answered, if Alma Denise signed her own name on the bank document and then used a digital signature for Apostle Betty name, then Apostle Betty could not access the account anymore because her signature would not match. Someone in cancer treatment and dying can’t have a perfect signature. Only Alma Denise’s signature would be a correct match to access funds.

On page 11, Alma Denise says:  that she is familiar with apostle’s signature

On page 155-156, Alma Denise says:  she did not sign things for Apostle Betty

On page 275 – 277, Alma Denise says:  she did sign things for Apostle Betty and she had a stamp

On page 278, Alma Denise says: Apostle Betty ran the church until her last breath, if that was so, why would there be a need for Alma to sign Apostle’s Betty’s name.

In her 2011 deposition: Alma Denise recounts the day that she  and the Janitor and Bookkeeper  supposedly signed documents  to become trustees. She said some people came in and signed their names and left. But in her 2014 deposition she states that there was a full board meeting, with opening prayer, minutes and everything. Alma is she lying now or were you lying then?  Now!

Alma Denise Killen – withdrew $27,000.00 cash out of the churches bank account, then says she couldn’t remember what it was for.

See Alma Denise admit to paying her husband, a minister at the church Stewie Killen $1000.00 for preaching one Sunday. Can you say Nepotism!!

We Can’t MakeThis Stuff Up,  That’s Why It Is So Hard for Some People To Believe!

 Editor Note: When we make a mistake here at People of Praise we are the first to admit that we were wrong. Earlier we reported that Denise Killen withdrew $ 27,000.00 from the church bank account. We were wrong . It actually was $27,020.00.     Our Bad!!

Res ipsa loquitur,  is a legal Latin phrase which translates to “the thing speaks for itself. “,   Fortunately the documents below will speak for themselves, as Denise Killen developed selective amnesia.

Jericho Church Secretary/C.O.O. admits to signing Apostle Peebles name on bank documents

MD Court Judge Dwight Jackson once again denies us our day in court . By not allowing us to present our evidence in a trial in court his biased decision allows more time for further fraud and abuse. Jericho church Secretary/COO Denise Killen admits under oath during the deposition phase of the pretrial activity to signing Apostle Betty Peebles name on the bank signature card just about five (5) days before her death to gain access to church funds, withdrawing $27,000.00 cash out of the church account and other egregious acts.

 

 See:    Denise Killen’s own words from her deposition taken at the bottom of this page.                

                          You be the judge!

———————————————————————————————————————

Biased Judge further delays our return to our property at the Jericho City of Praise campus. But not to worry the City of Praise members still have (4) more active cases in the system. This was just a bump in the road

In a joint statement, the plaintiffs called Jackson’s decision “appalling,” because it “allows six defendants who admitted under oath to committing fraud, theft and forgery to remain in the Maryland Mega-church until the appeal or their 4 other cases go forward.” The plaintiffs cited the deposition where one of the members of the board, Killen, admitted to signing Betty Peebles name on documents and taking cash in the amount of $27,000.

In a letter to his congregation, Joel Peebles said that there are several more legal matters to be settled and the case is far from over.

“While the legal system has its twists and turns, the ways of Christ aids us in our steadfastness,” he wrote.  “While this recent case is being sent for appeal and the three remaining cases are on the road to victory, let us continue our standards of unyielding love and forgiveness.”

The Supreme Court of Maryland, The Maryland Court of Appeals has spoken!

***  This article has been re-posted due to the many request by you! ***

*****************************

** The Truth Will Set You Free **

Attention City of Praise Members:

BakeliteVictory

       Hot off Of Press!!

The Maryland Court of Appeals (a seven judge panel), agreed with the decision from the Maryland Court of Special Appeals.

rejected-notice-letter

     The Six Rogues Employees request have Been Denied!!

Hot Off the Press

On October 26, 2012  not long after the Maryland Court of Special Appeals reversed the decision of the lower court. The Six Self-Appointed Rogue employees filed an appeal to the Supreme Court in Maryland.  Well the Ungodly, Unholy six employees kept telling their supporters that Pastor Joel and Chairman Meadows did not win anything with the court of special appeals decision, lol.   If that were true, then why did they immediately file an appeal??
They attempted to tie up this case in the court system for another 4-5 years by filing an appeal.    But God!!
On Tuesday January 22, 2013, the Maryland Court of Appeals, which is the supreme court in Maryland has agreed with the Maryland Court of Special Appeals and has denied the Petition for Writ of Certiorari entered by the six Self-Appointed, Rogue employees.  This means that the Court of Appeals of Maryland (the highest court) will not even entertain the thought of looking at their case.  The court said that they saw no issue that would make them think an error occurred when the Court of Special Appeals overruled Judge Dwight Jackson. It said that he was wrong in giving the six Self-Appointed Rogue employees their summary judgment. They agreed that there was sufficient evidence to show that Pastor Joel was in fact a member of the Board of Trustees all the time.
Recap:  So now you have the two highest courts in the State of Maryland, more than ten Honorable Judges stating that they do not see any reason why there should have been a Summary Judgment against Pastor Joel Peebles and Chairman William Meadows. 

There is too much evidence that support Pastor Joel!

THE DECISION FROM THE COURT OF SPECIAL APPEALS:

Which Reverses the ruling by the lower Circuit Court of Maryland

Rejoice City of Praise

Victory Is Ours!!!

 This is the Opinion From the Court of Special Appeals

The Six Unholy, Ungodly, Self-Appointed Rogue Employees have already put their spin on this document.

Apostle Betty taught us not to take anyone’s word but to get the facts for ourselves. Knowledge Is Power.

It’s important to note when reading this document and attempting to understand what the court is saying, that the term Summary Judgement  means a decision can be made without a trial.  It is interesting to note that the 6 rogue employees partitioned the court to have Pastor Joel and Chairman Meadows to pay for their court costs.  The court denied that and instead they ordered the Six Unholy, Ungodly, Self-Appointed, Rogue employees to pay one-third of the court costs.   Hmm!  Didn’t see that coming.

Jericho City of Praise: A 10,000 seat sanctuary with 40 People

               June 2, 2013 WORSHIP SERVICE UPDATE:

 Ever wonder what the Jericho City of Praise worship service under the leadership of the six UnGodly, Self-Appointed, Rogue Employees looks like one year after firing Pastor Joel and excommunicating the leaders & members?  Well Saints wonder no more. This is what you get when the Janitor, the Bookkeeper and the church Secretary do a hostile take over of the things of God.  

Below is a copy of an email recently sent to the UnGodly, Self-Appointed, Rogue 6.   

To:  Clarence Jackson, Dorothy Williams, Denise Killen,

         Clifford Boswell, Gloria MaGruder, Linda Pyles

The link below shows a clip of your service from June 2, 2013. The sanctuary at Jericho City of Praise seats 10,000 people, there are 40 people in the building. This is morally reprehensible and a reflection of your inability to run, build or grow a church. Unless God himself ordains it no one will follow Barbara Colvin-Etheridge, Rodney Walker or any other hireling.
Can you six still claim that this is what Apostle Betty Peebles wanted.  Her vision was to have a 10,000 seat church for 40 people. It’s ok to admit you are wrong and repent .
God grows whatever he sanctions. We have been at Roosevelt High School and run out of space. We are at Forestville High School and in the first week exceeded your congregation for a month combined. The reason is simple we are only concerned about people not going to hell for eternity and not our egos or playing church. We are not concerned about growing a mega church. Lives are at stake for eternity and you all want to play church, fatten your own pocketbooks and use man-made efforts to grow something that is clearly dead, dying and defunct. it is time to admit you are wrong and do what is right.
The entire community should be outraged to see what has transpired. The Jericho City of Praise now has 40 people in the building because you six want to utilize the church to enrich yourselves personally. Shame on you.
Jericho June 2, 2013 4 of 4
Note:
         The hostile takeover of Jericho by the Six UnGodly, Self-Appointed, Rogue employees has temporarily given them millions of dollars worth of property and millions of dollars in the bank. These six don’t care if the church grows or not, they are not in danger of losing any property because everything is paid in full, the church is not dependent on tithes & offerings to pay the bills.  All they have to do is pay the bills because they have plenty of money. The “cash only” parking for the redskins stadium along with the monthly rent taken in at the Jericho warehouse park provides ample ‘Mad Money’ for them. Michael Freeman can’t claim he is helping out this church because Jericho has more money than his ministry.

Matthew 6:19-21    King James Version (KJV)

19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:

20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:

21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

Why Are We Called The City of Praise Church?

Many have asked why we call ourselves The City of Praise.  The best person to answer this question is the one who changed the name of the church from Jericho City of Praise to The City of Praise, Apostle Betty P. Peebles

After the death of Elder John Peebles,  Apostle Betty said during a 2005 New Years sermon, that she was changing the name of the church from Jericho City of Praise to The City of Praise.  So, why have these six self-appointed, unholy, ungodly, rogue crooks  who say they are carrying out her wishes refuse to do this?  They fought against it after she died, they refuse to change the signs, they refuse to support the name change.  They claim that they are keeping with her vision.  How?  You be the judge as to who is actually carrying out Apostle’s vision. Apostle Betty and Elder Joel
