An indecent group of people who exclude others from their services!
They also do not want to bother with helping others and are strange.
On October 11, 2014 My company, a non-profit organization aimed at helping children in need, contacted Roanoke Chinese Church by request of a CSBC member- To ask if they would like to donate money to help a little girl who was undergoing cancer treatments. Someone who would not identify themselves from Roanoke Chinese Church, a man, called us back, and told us "it sounds good, just give us a few days to run it by everyone and we will be getting back to you"
A few days later we never recieved a call, email or voicemail from the Roanoke Chinese Church. Even though we left all those methods of contact with the unidentified man.
We waited another day and decided to try to call them again. During this 2nd phone call, someone calling themselves "Alice", a woman, accused us of calling them many times and said they are not interested in helping people who constantly call and bother people.
We have records of just 2 phone calls we ever made to them, yet they basically lied and said we called many times. 9 times according to "Alice". We told her we could surely dispute that and it was only our 2nd phone call. She was not interested in listening. I asked to speak with the pastor of the church and they were unwilling to allow me to speak with him.
Not even 10 minutes after that 2nd phone call did we recieve a phone call back. A really strange phone call. The man on the other end would not identify himself and sounded suspiciously like the 1st person we spoke with. They spoke with an asian accent and said "we will have the FBI and Police find you" Then they proceeded to say "I am a policeman"! Then hang up the phone.
I later found out the "pastor" of this church, named Pastor Wu, had barred and asked many people of different faiths to not come to his church services and that he preferred mostly "ethnic chinese" attend his services- according to people we have spoke to.
We attempted to reach the pastor of the Cave Spring Baptist Church, a Pastor Schemm, to ask for his comment- However our emails were never answered. All email correspondence sent to Roanoke Chinese Church to this date also has not been answered.

What is the name of your organization? I would be interested to know. I am a member of CSBC and have been for nearly 5 years. I decline to state my name but I would like to tell you, I think the person saying they are a policeman was the pastor, Michael Wu, you mentioned. He has done some questionable things. He is a very strange individual. I have heard some members say they feel uncomfortable around him. I too have also heard he barred or asked people to leave of different faiths, contrary to what was stated by our other member here. However the main thing your talking about in your report is not this. Its about them not giving you money. I find what you did here horrible and inexcusable. It has brought some trouble to this church. You should be ashamed of yourself for posting this. You make it out as if the church doesn't help others and tells lies. Not all the members are like this. They might have just tried to politely tell you we aren't interested by saying " We will be getting back with you in a few days ". If they don't get back with you, you should know theres no need to keep contacting them. You did a bad thing here. While I do agree with what you said about Michael Wu, I think you were just trying to start trouble, which you did. I hope you decide to withdraw your comments and post an update stating that. If you could also contact Ripoff Report and ask them to remove this off of Google search pages.

I found this report on the second page of google search results by typing the words CAVE SPRING BAPTIST CHURCH. i cannot beleive someone would be this petty and write a report talking about these people in this manner. i find these comments written here shocking! i have been a member of the cave spring baptist church for a number of years and the roanoke chinese church and their association is just a group that likes to “ keep to themselves” it does not mean in any way shape or form that they are indecent! The members of the roanoke chinese church also have never asked, or forced any one to leave their services, since they have been located inside our church. so what you said about them telling others to leave their services is a lie! they would never do that and the cave spring baptist church leadership strongly apposes this kind of treatment of guests.
your organization should fire you! and as far as any one at our church knows, they were never even contacted by a charitable organization like yours!
COMPLETELY SLANDEROUS AND FULL OF LIES

Your post seems pretty clear. You asked this church for money. You didn't like the response. You decided to badmouth them on the Internet.
Feel fortunate that you did not mention the name of your charity in your petty, spiteful post. Most charitable organizations would kick you out for pulling something as stupid as this.
Your attempt to involve the pastor of another church in your pettiness is completely over the top. Do you really not know why he didn't respond? You should be ashamed of yourself.
