Pastor and television personality Louis Wade continues to get support in his fight with the Belize Police Department - and the political directorate. Earlier this week, it was the National Evangelical Association of Belize that came out supporting him and blasting the police. And today it is his denomination, The Church of the Nazarene. They issued a statement this evening saying, quote, "Pastor Louis Wade Jr. is one of our outstanding pastors who maintains a high level of integrity and commitment...To question his character in the way it is being done and to publish it nationwide is to discredit the Church of the Nazarene."
The statement then takes a sharp political turn, saying, quote, "We fully support Pastor Wade in his endeavour to stand against unrighteousness, even if it is against leaders that make up our government. We are fully committed to praying for them, but will not condone any questionable act that will undermine our people as a nation." end quote.
The fiery stamens closes by saying, quote, "We call upon our authorities to stand on the side of righteousness and make a legitimate investigation into the charges made against Pastor Louis Wade Jr. There is enough recorded evidence that proves his innocence."
Police say Wade never showed up with his videotaped evidence, and add that his statement is riddled with inconsistencies.
Wade next appears in court in June.
