UBF harassment
I have read with interest the article and letters about the so-called University Bible Fellowship (UBF) since I have had experience with that group.
A woman in her late twenties, calling herself Joy Sara Lee (her real name is Chung Soon Tai) phoned our house more than 100 times in little more than three months, and attempted to gain access to our house more than a dozen times. On one occasion, when the back door was left unlocked, 1 found her lurking in the darkened kitchen.
Our family asked her to leave us alone. I finally lost my temper and told her never to phone or call again and that we would call the police if she did not stop harassing us. The result was she got a young man to ring the doorbell while she hid behind a tree. She also had the young man make the phone calls for her.
Finally, when the police told her we had complained about her actions, the harassment stopped. But not until then. At least one member of UBF does more than Just “chat” with people.
Further, the University Bible Fellowship has no official or unofficial connection with any Winnipeg university, as I found when I called to complain to the universities about the organization. It does its recruiting of young, male Canadians on the university campuses and suggests by its name that it is a university organization. It is not.

“Ex-cult member still feels fear”

“The Winnipeg Sun” Vol. 10, No.90 Tuesday, April 17, 1990 PAGE 5 “Cult personality draws people to Fellowship” Ex-Cult Member Still Feels Fear by Wendy Stephenson Sun Staff Writer She doesn’t make the phone call herself. She’s scared. Someone else phones the newsroom. Please don’t print Theresa’s story – she’s changed her mind, he says. The story – told over 4 1/2 hours one day in late June – is one of human tragedy – a young woman who sought a closer relationship with God, but instead found herself abused and berated by so-called Christians. She became mixed up with the University Bible Fellowship, a cult that’s been kicked off university and college campuses in Canada and the United States [insert] Leader abused woman’s trust It was the last straw for a then 22 year old Bible study student, who realized the missionary position could take on a new meaning. She blushes even yet as she recalls how the man she looked to as her spiritual leader abused her trust. She had a

What Canada UBF did after the Winnipeg UBF scandal

Winnipeg UBF was the epi-centre and breeding ground for mind control, harrassment and at least one incident of rape. It is well documents. Winnipeg UBF was banned from all Winnipeg campuses. Then, the leaders from Winnipeg moved to Quebec and Ontario where they were not well known for cult activity, so they could fly under the radar for a while. Today Winnipeg UBf vetrans control Canada UBF. Check it out: Luke Hong ( Montreal UBF ) – Winnipeg veteran Joshua Lee ( Toronto UBF ) – Winnipeg Veteran Workhard Yoon ( Waterloo UBF ) – Winnipeg Veteran Paul Chang ( Hamilton UBF ) – Winnipeg Veteran. The abuse continues. To understand the commitment to the same program look at “montreal.ubf.org” prayer topics and see that they earnestly pray to maintain the Samuel Lee legacy of “manger spirit, 5 loaves and 2 fish, giving spirit, soldier-martyrdom spirit, world mission through 1:1 bible studies, layman and student oriented ministry” Source:  http://www.voy.com/60734/1/8919.html All if n

Canada UBF (Winnipeg UBF)– Uncovering multiple layers of dirt

THE MANITOBAN –VOL LXXVIII October 17, 1990 p.7 More on the UBF I would like to address Randall Brandt’s response to Reage’s articles ( Oct 10th / letters ). Mr. Brandt insists that we should “vigorously defend the rights of those whom we disagree.” I am 100% in favor of that attitude. We should support their rights to present, in a reasonable fashion, their beliefs. The UBF has been banned from campus  not  for their beliefs, as Brandt hastily assumes, but for their methods of persuasion and coercion, which have been deemed excessive. I believe that anyone should have the right to believe that racial minorities are inferior. But for him to push his beliefs on children during recess? No. Brandt himself says that the UBF are not dangerous to people of normal discretion and intelligence. But groups that use  harassment  and  persistent pressure  to recruit don’t always ask their recruits if they have normal discretion and intelligence before beginning their persuasion. No
