Complaint Review: Rod Parsley Ministry

This 'ministry' had a petition on their web a while back a church friend asked
me to fill out for a women's issue, I believe.

Wasn't more than a week or two until the religious telemarketing calls and snail-mail appeals to 'save starving children in Africa' started coming.

By all appearances what Parsley has going is a fund-raising operation and little to do with religion. The web site is cheesy and poorly designed and offers little information about what they will do with money collected.

The snail-mail appeals for cash are VERY short on explanations where the cash will go except blurbs like 'starving children in Africa' etc. I have seen many an expose' where media shills go to Africa and attempt to find the orphanages and food camps ministries claim to run - only to find nothing.

If the web site petitions are sucker lists and will be used for marketing, then
the 'ministry' should state it on the web page. Their charitable work is almost impossible to verify.

But I would be interested to see a picture of the reverend's house and airplane etc.
