We, the undersigned, call upon the Gallatin County Attorney, the Montana Attorney General, and relevant federal authorities to conduct an immediate, independent investigation into the financial practices, governance structures, and institutional conduct of Petra Bible Church in Bozeman, Montana. Multiple firsthand accounts and documented evidence have raised serious concerns regarding financial opacity, undisclosed international wire transfers, coercive membership practices, and organizational activities inconsistent with the stated mission of a 501(c)(3) religious nonprofit.

The evidence compiled by the Montana Faith Accountability Project includes survivor testimonies documenting multi-tiered membership hazing protocols, financial records showing unexplained payments to shell entities in Venezuela, photographic evidence of a 340,000-dollar trampoline procurement program with no documented public benefit, and connections to individuals and entities named in publicly released federal investigation documents. These are not allegations made lightly. They are the product of months of rigorous, evidence-based investigation conducted by credentialed professionals.

We believe that every community member, regardless of faith affiliation, has a right to know whether institutions operating in their community are conducting themselves with integrity. We call for full transparency, full accountability, and a formal public accounting of the activities described in the MFAP investigation.
