On Saturday, Mt. Salem voted him out for attending a local Rick Ross concert.
With a vote of 11 to 3, the 14 deacons met at 11pm Saturday night
to discuss and come to a conclusion that they did not need his services
anymore. Rev. Wills arrived to the church the next day for Sunday
morning worship service and notice his parking sign taken down and his
name removed from the office door.
The deacons even asked another minister from the community to
officiate the service that morning. “We cannot have our leader
supporting people of this world who are tearing down the kingdom of
God.” said Deacon Miles Langley.
According to Deacon Langley, this is not the first time Rev. Wills
has attended a concert while pastoring Mt. Salem. 9 months ago the
diaconate board met with Rev. Wills when word was given to them that
many youth and young adults spotted the pastor at a Lil Wayne concert.
“We know that many saints will have mixed opinions from our
actions, but this is not how we do things here at Mt. Salem. We cannot
have a pastor praising the world one minute then praising the Lord the
next. Period” said Deacon Langley.
Rick Ross recently made nationwide news when he was dropped from
Reebok and other endorsements for lyrics advocating rape towards women.
”Put Molly all in her Champagne/ She ain’t even know it/ I took her home
and I enjoyed that/ She ain’t even know it,” he raps on the track.
