Hi Patrick! It's great to have you here. Can you tell me a bit more about the legal issue you're facing? That way, I can provide better guidance.
Robert said that United Church Of God Lewis Van Ausdle said " he doesn't think ABC ( Ambassador Bible College) is a good fit for us because I people have to hold our hand everywhere we go" and he also said that he should not bring us to the feast because then would you have to watch them. So Adrian is the ableist from UCG that called me and Dale retards and did not want to hang out with us because we are disabled and he got into a bloody fistfight with another church member and the pastor choose not to punish him so it was in his favor.

UCG supports law enforcement but when they had the opportunity to do justice about the Adrian situation the pastor named Lewis Van ausdle said we should leave the Justice up to God. minister named Lewis Van Ausdle said" not to take them to the feast because you have to watch them." That's discrimination because the ucg minister told someone not to take them to the feast because they would need to be watched. The United Church Of God Adrian Wnorowski told Robert Teitgen pointing at me and Dale, I can't hang out with these guys, and then Roberts said why can't you? Who's Adrian Wnorowski? Only the most arrogant and hateful person who claims to follow Jesus Christ but does not live up to it so Adrian said I and Dale talk funny and are socially awkward even though the bible says Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.

Germaine even said "They can walk" and the church also didn't punish someone who made disabled people cry or want to hang out with them because their disabilities and punched another church member in the face when they were first fighting. Also another member of that same church named Charlie Hart bashed people for having speech impediments
