Latest information available to us is that the controversial wedding of Pastor W.F. Kumuyi's son John and
his sweet heart, Love, started generating trouble even before the
wedding day.
Some leaders of Deeper Life Bible Church who attended the wedding in Jamiaca had condemned and rejected the first wedding gown purchased by the couple as it revealed sensitive body parts...
The couple promised to change the wedding gown on Friday, just a day to
the wedding, so the leaders didn't see the new wedding gown until the
beautiful bride appeared at the church where the wedding took place.
Their action has caused Pastor Kumuyi a lot of embarrassment as some
members of the church now see him in a different light since his son's
"flamboyant" wedding.
Consequently, it was gathered that the leadership of the Deeper Church has suspended the son of the General Superintendent of the church and his wife, John and Love Kumuyi, from carrying out any activity in the church over their wedding in Jamaica.
John and Love wedded in Jamaica on 15 June, 2013, and thousands of members of the church have reacted sharply while condemning the wedding gown worn by the wife and other aspects of the wedding that were at variance with the church’s standard and Pastor Kumuyi's preaching.
Another issue was the hiring of a Limousine by the couple, an act seen as reckless.
Due to the myriad of controversies generated by the wedding on the
social media, especially by members of Deeper Life, the church decided
to place the couple on suspension.
John and Love’s suspension from the church was announced by Pastor Philip Oluwi, a key leader in the church. Pastor Oluwi, who acted on the instruction from Pastor Kumuyi, insisted and re-emphasized that the standard of Deeper Life regarding wedding and moderacy had not changed.

“The church, Deeper Life, remains committed to the biblical practice and standard of almost 40 years Christian dressing and still remains and does not compromise on biblical Christian dressing.
“Hence, deviation warrants the displeasure and frown of God and the leadership of the church. John and Love are now under discipline.”
A blogger had earlier reported
that the couple has apologised to the church for the embarrassing way
the wedding was conducted , saying they are praying for "repentance".
You may also wish to know that the wedding took place in another church
in Jamiaca, not Deeper Life, since the church was yet to be approved by
the government of Jamaica for wedding activities.
