Rev. Wills was voted out by deacons of Mt. Salem on Saturday for attending a Rick Ross concert.
The young pastor arrived to the church the next day for Sunday morning worship service and noticed his parking sign taken down and his name removed from the office door.
The deacons even asked another minister from the community to officiate the service that morning, "We cannot have our leader supporting people of this world who are tearing down the kingdom of God." said Deacon Miles Langley.
According to Deacon Langley, this is not the first time Rev. Wills has attended a concert while pastoring Mt. Salem. 9 months ago the diaconate board met with Rev. Wills when word was given to them that many youth and young adults spotted the pastor at a Lil Wayne concert.
"We know that many saints will have mixed opinions from our actions, but this is not how we do things here at Mt. Salem. We cannot have a pastor praising the world one minute then praising the Lord the next. Period" said Deacon Langley.
Rick Ross was recently dropped from Reebok and other endorsements for lyrics advocating rape towards women, "Put Molly all in her Champagne/ She ain't even know it/ I took her home and I enjoyed that/ She ain't even know it," he raps on the track.
