Actually it is, it’s one of the oldest Catholic Churches in LA.

Trying to sell gullible people something they won’t get until they die.

I think my pastor (Eli Gemstone) and his family are into some shady things. Can’t really prove it, but I just have that feeling.

$1m or more


My family went to Our Savior's in Lafayette for a good while until I found out where the lead pastor lived. In a $1.2 million dollar home out in Maurice. Plus, Don's Wholesale donates luxury vehicles to he and his wife.

You don't have to be poor to preach, but damn, live a little more modest.

Idk if this is shady necessarily but I talked to the pastors wife of a church in Augusta GA when I was at the masters this year. That bastard gets to play Augusta National multiple times per year

My wife won a ruger 30-06 rifle in a church raffle I think because they thought she wouldn’t want it and would refuse it. I think she said something like I will buy a ticket but no way do I want another gun.

It wasn’t my church and I have killed over a dozen deer with it. Love that gun

Roman Catholic Church fair that allowed gambling. It used to anyway.

Drop a quarter on a color, small ball is tossed and rolls onto whatever color. Winning color doubles money.

Pretty sweet actually.

I honestly believe sometimes Churches do more harm than good. Too many are standing between people and God and not being a force to bring people closer to God.

Allows openly gheys, drunkards, crooks, and other sinners to attend church on Sunday morning, but can't join the church unless they repent and believe.


As my pastor says “this is a hospital for sinners. Not a museum for saints.”

Mine would definitely be raffles. Never saw a raffle where someone who’s tied to the pastor didn’t win the grand prize


Reminds me of a good bit by Redd Foxx from back in the day about a winning raffle ticket...
