It has multiple locations in western Washington and is connected to multiple high-profile celebrities.
Afraid of losing her job, Kellogg said she set up automatic withdrawals from her bank account to meet the 10% threshold. However, after being involved in a serious car accident that August, Kellogg experienced a strain on her finances. Nusser said Kellogg also “got a formal written reprimand by her immediate supervisor that stated she is not following the tithing policy.”Several of the alleged messages from multiple Churchome officials to Kellogg over a period of time warn of further disciplinary action and possible termination if she was unable to meet the 10% tithing amount.
Goods informed Kellogg that the church would increase tithing audits to every six months to ensure that employees were compliant.
