THEY PLANNED TO STEAL, BUT GOD WAS VERY MUCH AWAKE

A few years back it was all over the news and social media that one of MFM Maryland U.S.A church property was in court over dispute of ownership, after the then serving pastor CHANGED THE NAME OF THE CHURCH OVERNIGHT and converted the church bank accounts to the name of his own MINISTRY, but down the line, MFM WON THE CASE IN DIFFERENT LEVELS OF COURT PROCEEDINGS 

THE LAST AND LOST BATTLE

On October 22, 2021, Lawrence Adetunji his wife Ronke and 11 other former members of Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries, Bowie lost their final appeal in case number

CAL616-26532, entitled Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries, International, et al. v.

Lawrence Adetunji, et al. in the Circuit Court for Prince George’s County in Maryland,

USA. Lawrence Adetunji was the pastor of the Bowie Branch when he, his wife and the other co-defendants conspired to unlawfully take the branch property, bank accounts and assets in order to create a new church called Christ the Truth Ministries, Inc.

THE MOVE AND THE COURT JUDGEMENT

Mountain of Fire commenced legal action to recoup its property and assets.

A judge heard the trial and found in favor of Mountain of Fire against all defendants. The

judge entered judgement requiring Adetunji and the co-defendants to return the real property, bank accounts, assets and awarded Mountain of Fire damages and attorney’s fees.

THE GLITCH OF MEETING UP

The church properties located at 5503 & 5506, Church Road in Bowie were

returned as was the money remaining in the bank accounts. The defendants; however,

refused to satisfy the remainder of the judgement totaling over $150,000.00 pending

their appeal.

THE APPEAL THEY LOST

Adetunji and the co-defendants appealed to The Maryland Court of Special Appeals.

Their appeal was denied in a unanimous decision. They next petitioned for a Writ of

Centiori, seeking to file an appeal with The Maryland Court of Appeals. The Chief Judge

denied their request outright without a hearing.

AND THEY PAID UP

With all appeals having now been exhausted, Mountain of Fire commenced collection

actions. With no other options available, Adetunji issued two personal checks totaling

more than $200,000.00 to satisfy the judgment, attorney’s fees, and accrued interest.

This just goes to tell that time will always give the truth a path way to appear

Happy new year

FEMI OYEWALE we will always be here to serve the truth
