Lakeland, Fl — File this one under sad but true, but poetic! Yes, this megastar man of the cloth, or is it silk, the right Reverand Bishop First Class Buely Newport, a local healing practitioner in the charismatic movement, is a casualty of his own making. After spending about 8 hours in the Sulphur Lake Hospital and Rehabilitation Center, laying hands on all who were afflicted, blessing the healthy, and cursing those who were possessed, now the Right Reverand is suffering from an infection. And there is no one in the area who has the power to utter a prayer for this mega minister.
The only person who has given utterance is his former wife, who has dropped in, and cursed him in other tongues. No one seems to have a clue as to what to do. Other ministers in the area will be meeting tonight at the AmVets Club, during Happy Hour, in order to map out a plan for getting Newport back on his feet.
