    Yep, word on the street is that Mexico is taking over. The rest of the Central American branches are getting the ax. More Bethel layoffs!!

    I've also heard the eastern Caribbean is getting taken over by another Bethel, but no word yet on which one. I'm guessing U.S. for now, since it would need to be an English-speaking one.

    Amazing they don't turn the Bethel homes into assisted living facilites or dorms and have paying renters or buyers as in a condominium. Most main stream religions run profitable housing programs, maybe its to anit- big A and presents End of Times image problems.

    They have a smart money guy in Simonis, he must have gotten voted down.

    If this keeps up they'll be running it out of someone's garage. What a shame.

    Here's their address there in Costa Rica. Here's a list of branches but other locations also. Branches showed on 2009 Annual Report to be 118.
