Pastor’s Wife & Mistress Fight During Church Service?!

Pastor Frank Ray and wife Deborah J. Ray

Church service at New Salem Missionary Baptist Church in Memphis, TN was not the same and probably will never be the same again, after a fight broke out during church service between two women and families over one woman, allegedly the Pastor’s Wife and another woman, allegedly the Pastor’s mistress.

New Salem members watched in awe as two women fought during their Sunday Communion service, allegedly over pastor Frank Ray’s marital affairs.

Soon after the fight between the two women began, a brawl between two families sparked near the church’s choir section, reports WMCTV who also reports that Beverly Milam, her nemesis Terry Bell, and Bell’s daughter, Charra Lumpkin, were at the center of the altercation.

Bell and Milam revealed that the fight began over a verbal confrontation at last Wednesday’s Bible study where Milam told Bell to “stop sleeping with somebody” which led to Bell getting in her face.

At the fight in church on Sunday, both women are claiming the other one started it. Bell claims Milam hit her daughter, while Milam claims Angel, Bell’s friend, hit her in the face with an umbrella and that’s when family ‘jumped in.’

Later, officers arrived on the church scene and separated the women and others from fighting.

No one was arrested. Milam was treated at the church, for a slightly swollen and bloodshot right eye, while the other two (Bell and Lumpkin, who both suffered from scratch marks to their neck and upper chest) refused medical treatment.

  1. JESUS, WHAT HAVE THIS WORLD COME TOO? THEY ALL NEED TO BE VOTED OUT BY THE MEMBERS INCLUDING THE PASTOR, TO ME THAT WAS JUST A SLAP IN JESUS FACE, AFTER DIEING FOR YOU ALL, WHAT HAPPEN TO RESPECT? AND OUT OF ALL THINGS, WHY COMMUNION? TO MANY SPIRIT IN THERE FOR ME AND I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT THE HOLY SPIRIT. THAT IS WHY A LOT OF PEOPLE DON’T COME TO CHURH NOW, BECAUSE OF PEOPLE LIKE YOU ALL. WHERE DID YOU GO WRONG PASTOR?

  2. YOU ARE SO RIGHT BEAT THAT B---H A-S AND THEN BEAT YOUR HUSBAND A-S TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! P.S LORD FORGIVE ME.

  3. I’m not here to judge.. Being a man that suppose to set good examples and deliver the word of God, “This is Sad!!” U know the 10 commandments, which one is, Thou shouldn’t commit adultery…

  4. It says pastor wife and mistress had a fight I don’t believe it cause the names they give is not the pastor’s wife name there different names it could be some church members who was having the problem you got to be careful what you read people are quick to judge the enemy is out to destroy the church

  5. We hsve had a fight like that at my church but it was between.two.mistresses. The wife never attended our church. Then.they went to.a church metting and aired out his dirty.laundry …

  6. My lord……..this isn’t the thing to do . I pray that better things come for that church but wow! That didn’t have to go on in the house of the lord..there is a time and place for everything…God be with that church

  7. If they had know the truth that a man can have more than one wife biblically then there would be no fight.so Christian and Christianity will suffer from lack of right knowledge in their institutions.

  8. Yall act like pastors ain’t the biggest hypocrites half the time. Come on Yall. Preaching to be simple and happy but have thousands of dollars teaching to be Christlike but sleeping with multiple women WHILE. Married. Stop acting surprised because one was brought to the spotlight. Foh. They do it everyday in every church.

  9. The pastor, mistress and probably everyone else , needs deliverance. Throwing rocks at these people won’t help them any better than rocks hitting you if your life where on display. It’s unfortunate that key people got out of line but who hasn’t. Father God, in the name of Jesus, I pray for your Word to reign supreme and that your Spirit touches, convicts and restores the pastor, the mistress, the wife and the families. I pray that the want to obtain repentance and walk in it. I pray for those who have left racists remarks and duck behind the Word as a cover and justification. I pray for those who would find someplace safe to hide if the covers where pulled from their bodies and the naked truth of their lives exposed. I write these words and ask that you cover these people, and me, by the blood of your son, Jesus Christ and in His name I pray, amen.

  10. This is ridiculous, the 1st lady definitely went after the wrong person. It should have been her husband (the pastor..correction devil in sheeps clothing). Saying anything to the mistress was fuel for the fire. The results from that is she goes after the pastor, harder not less. Like a post below, 1st lady delivered the groceries to the wrong address. The pastor owes his congregation and apology and the board should consider removing him from his position and finding a new pastor. It now known he is not walking in the word. I personally would change churches.

  11. Please read the story it doesn’t have anything to do with a pastor or his wife. The couple in the picture names are not the same as any of the ladies in the report.

  12. Further knowledge that churches and their members aren’t hitting on is. No different than the pastor in my home state admitting he has Aids and has slept with over 70 members.

  13. God is at work in that church. He said you preach the word of God but do the opposite of what the Lord has written you don’t do that. Vengeance shall be mine saith the Lord. And he doing just that. Shame on him. Lol

  14. What kind of a bad pastor is that one with a mistress in the church of God!! What a shame! people!! you need to stop going to that church please woooo!!! God forbid! Fake Pastors like that lol

  15. As big as the world is grown folks are in church tightening over this man (trying to be polite)??? More importantly, who are the people who continue to follow him? Church folk can be so gullible.

  16. No one who is teaching and preaching the gospel is perfectI think that’s part of the problem we put preachers and pastures in the position of being Christ put them on a pedestal as if they should be perfect the Bible said all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God now this man was wrong and what he did and the people who fought over him we’re just as wrong that’s why we should pray for them and the people who are under his leadership and for him to do the right thing step down from his position until he can be restored.all of us who are Christians have committed acts a willful sin and God forgive us and has forgiven us of all sin through his death on the cross that’s past presents and future sins let me say again that what he and his mistress did was dead wrong no ifs and or buts about it dead wrong but he has been forgiven and he needs to repent meaning turn away from his saying humble himself make amends to his wife his mistress and his congregation his kids anyone else who was hurts by his actions.

  17. It’s a shame that a pastor tries too preach and teach about marriage is sacred, but yet contradicting everything he preaches

  18. No… to me this is right on point…. !!!! These people are human…. they make mistakes…. as a christian people need to understand that we are not perfect and make mistakes…. now lets see what this Pastor will do … will he lie to cover his shame or will he admit that he did any wrong doing to make his wife believe he was cheating …. see it is his place as a man and a christian to admit when he did wrong or is in the wrong.

  19. whoooooo that first lady look fine as h*ll. She can get it from this young dude. But seriously though that pastor has to go…….

  20. And they day that allowing same sex couple to marry will destroy the sanctity of marriage…I think they are doing that all by themselves

  21. THIS IS JUST OUTRAGEOUSLY DISGUSTING?! JUST HOW WILL PEOPLE GET TO KNOW GOD IF THIS IS HOW THE CHURCH IS ACTING? THIS IS NOT THE FIRST, EITHER! WHERE IS OUR LOVE FOR GOD AND HIS WILL BEING DI

  22. Wowww..god sure works on exposure!! Devil in sheep’s clothing!! Y’all made flesh take over y’all.. HOW DISGRACEFUL!! GO REPENT!! No ones perfect, but u should know way better than those who are looking on!! Darn SHAME!!

  23. What’s attractive about this guy that allowed any wowan to be fighting over him? That is the thing about pastor they played dressed up every Sundays but they are nothing but a bunch of low life. One woman it not enough for them, that is why a lot of people don’t church.

  24. Eeww, Frank Ray looks like a molester. Nothing attractive about him and so many bad rumors about him and his personal life.

  25. In the house of GOD. What is this world coming to. How can a pastor preach the bible, he cheated on his wife.

  26. A Cadre of Coons and adulterers and fornicators. showing out in a church of all places. They look like And act like the Pharisees.
