San Luis Obispo Assembly (known as SLO)

MTT team was sent there in 1983, and afterwards SLO began breaking bread as an Assembly. Also in 1983 Jeff Lemkuhl and Keith and Gay Walker were commended to the Work there. David and Judy Geftakys are sent to SLO in the summer of 1985. Brent T. reports:

The first message David shares was about Abraham, and how he ruled his house well. His second message was from Malachi, and had to do with robbing God by withholding tithes and offerings. David begins to undo almost everything Keith did and begins to show his authoritarian side almost immediately.

Although David was not considered "full time in the work," immediately upon coming to SLO, he personally handled the "lord's treasury," and got his livelihood from it. He told me, after preaching his second message, that the contributions the next Sunday were just over a thousand dollars. The Assembly was small, and mostly college students at the time.
