I am asking for prayer support for the condo community where I live.

Tomorrow evening (Monday, May 2) is when my homeowners board will be deciding on new property management companies. The one being considered is a company that is owned/operated by another homeowner who basically "stuffed" the ballots by using other homeowners proxies to place the current president, vp and member-at-large onto the board to form a voting block in his favor. This homeowner has a history of causing great dissension and bearing false witness against other neighbors for the purpose of his personal gain.

Also, the new board president has called the only two believers also serving on the board "idiots" for their spiritual beliefs and feels the same about anyone who professes a belief in the Lord God/Jesus Christ. He has all but said that he is trying to bring my community under Shari'a law. (This is a condominium community in Colorado, not the Middle-East).

Please pray that all weapons being formed against the believers in my community will not prosper and that the Lord God/Jesus Christ will be glorified!

Holy smokes, Debbie! May the Lord grant you grace.
For those who are wondering, my name is spelled "Denes House," but it's pronounced "Throatwobbler Mangrove..."

This situation sounds out of control! Have you considered contacting a Christian legal outfit about this?

Praise the Lord for answered prayer and the prayers of His people!


Update: Last night's meeting was conducted in a calm and ordered manner, but not without the HOA president first "scolding" the community. He began by saying that he was deeply hurt and made statements about Osama's death and hopes that he wasn't going to be required to produce his naturalization papers to continue as HOA president. Many homeowners had questioned the president over the past week about why we needed a new management company which is what prompted his opening remarks.


Once his comments were out of the way, the meeting was conducted in a proper and respectful fashion. Both the HOA president and vp acknowledged that due to community concerns, they would not consider the property management company run by their friends/current homeowners because it presented too large of a conflict of interest. Another company was approved and voted to serve.

I am still asking for prayer concerning this man's personal and religious bias.
He has made angry comments about feeling persecuted by Americans, having no respect for people serving in the military or for Christians and Jewish believers faith. Also, there is no justification for his termination of the current management company (it is owned and managed by a Jewish man who served the community with great respect and excellence). Please pray for this man's salvation.

sorry for the "bolding" . . . After several tries, I cannot remove it from the post.
