Lee Ray Read Gary King's letter to Lee Ray, dated July 21, 1998. Of course, Ray never bothered to answer this letter. In the picture here, Lloyd Goodwin is on the left; Lee Ray is on the right. Lee Ray is the pastor of the Tri-City Gospel Assembly Church in Kingsport, Tennessee. Formerly, he was the assistant pastor of the GAC in Des Moines, Iowa, under Lloyd L. Goodwin, and for years was the principal of the GAC school. He passes himself off as a "man of God," and lives off the tithes and offerings of his congregation. Here are some facts about him, which he has not seen fit to repent for, at least not to the people of the GA churches. Lee Ray is a rapist. He has had sex with at least two girls that were under age at the time, and made sexual advances on at least two others that I know of. I have personally spoken with two of these girls. One lady told me she was forcibly raped (she was under age at the time). Of course, both incidents are statutory rape. Some of the girls were strong enough to say no; others were not. One girl told Gary King that Ray had sex with her twice; at that point, she was so confused and brainwashed that she actually repented to him for being a temptation! This brave lady told me that when she repented to Ray, he told her "If you ever tell anyone you will be sorry" (sic). Here is some more information on Rev. Lee Ray. The following story is as Gary King related it to me. In the fall of 1997, Gary King was still an elder in the Des Moines church. This was, of course, after Lloyd Goodwin's death. One day, he and his wife went over to an elderly sister's home to pray for her. As they were conversing with her, Gary happened to notice one of her photos that she had on an end-table. It was of a young man. Gary didn't know who it was, so he asked her. She seemed very flustered about it. She said, "Well, you know who that is." Gary said, "No, I'm sorry, I don't." She replied, "That's Lee Ray's son." Gary was flabbergasted. He didn't know what to say. He knew she was telling the truth, though. As he told it to me, the boy looked exactly like Lee Ray. Here is what allegedly happened: Lee Ray had an affair with a woman in the church (the elderly sister's daughter-in-law). She got pregnant. When Lloyd Goodwin and Lee Ray found out she was pregnant, they told her to either "get an abortion or leave!" This poor women opted to leave, rather than to give up her son. The report also is, that this woman told Goodwin and Ray "leave me alone or I will expose you." All of this was about 1981. The way I understand it, in 1981 Lee Ray left also, and went to Florida to be with this woman. Those of you in the church at the time will remember this. When he left, he supposedly said that "Lloyd Goodwin is the most evil man I have ever met." Lee Ray did not stay gone too long, however. Supposedly, Goodwin offered him a deal to come back. I do know that after Ray came back, Goodwin annointed him to the ministry. At this point, hearing this story in 1997, Gary King started to realize that there was something very wrong at Gospel Assembly Church. Speaking for myself, the affair was bad enough; but even worse is Goodwin and Ray telling her to either "get an abortion or leave." I know this woman's identity, as do many others, but I will not mention it here. I wonder if this boy even knows who his real father is? I wonder if Lee Ray has ever done anything to care for him? I wonder why Lloyd Goodwin ordained Lee Ray as a minister-- since he surely knew about all of this-- not to mention why he let him remain the principal of the school and the asst. pastor of the church. If Lee Ray's victims were to sue him in civil court, would not the Des Moines Gospel Assembly Church be liable as well? Read Gary King's letter to Lee Ray, dated July 21, 1998. Of course, Ray never bothered to answer this letter. If you would like to contact Lee Ray, go to my contact page, where I have his email address, and the phone and mailing address for the church.
