Rex Omar underlined that despite not going to church, he still has a close relationship with his faith. I used to be quite involved with the church, Rex Omar recalled. We would travel to Atwea Mountain to pray and do other things.
I consequently asked my pastor one day if the church could contribute to the cost of my recording since I wanted to visit the recording studio. However, the pastor informed me that the church board was unable to provide the money. I made the decision to cease attending church at that point.
