No one has responded to what happened to Warren Wainwright.
I heard he had left the work and had started/opened up a "care center" for the elderly/infirm in southern California.
Then I hear on this forum he has married and then that he died.
Does anyone know?

There are two Warren Wainwrights. The one in CA has convention at his place. He is married and has a son, Scott in the work. The other one was in the work. Please don't confuse them.

To recent post: you stated, Warren Wainwright WAS in the work..... So, ? -- did he leave the work, die in the work or did he marry (in Africa) ?
That is the question.
Thank you for informing me that there are TWO Warren Wainwrights. I appreciate being corrected when I am in error.

I don't know anything other than what I heard, and that is that the Warren in the work married. I know nothing else, just heard him speak one time over twenty years ago when he was visiting in CA.

I heard Warren passed away last week after a bypass operation over in France. He is my mom's cousin I believe. Thought this might be of interest to anyone who knew him. He was a "worker" over in Belgium for years also. Long time ago now, we were young kids "discovering" Europe and ended up at a cafe in Belgium (somewhere near Waterloo where the Duke of Wellington defeated Napoleon) with Warren who ordered the bottle of wine. He obviously knew the local reds! We thought he was totally cool, hey an American worker in Belgium acting normal, treating us with respect and enjoying the ambience as much as we were! He was a great guy to us, somewhere I've got a picture to prove it. Whatever his preaching (we never got to hear), he showed us a spirit of Christ.

uppercase ''S''... Spirit of Christ
lowercase "s"... unclean spirit

Warren was in the work for many many years, he married a wonderful woman in Belgium who is deaf. They were a nice couple.
I'm sure that he knew how to choose the best red wine - any worker that I know that is from Europe can. Its part of the culture over there.

so what happened? Did he in reality pass away ? as the first post on this thread stated ? And the other post says they WERE a nice couple as in past tense.
I heard him speak/preach once in the U.S. (on a home visit when he was / had been prior in France), and he spoke rather strongly (knocked my socks off) regarding the appearance of some of the women (claiming to profess Godliness) he had seen here in the states on his return visit ....
As I recall, he stated that they looked like w _____'s (it was very-very unbecoming to say the least). He said he could not believe how women had started looking so w_______ly since he had left the U.S. and then returned (only after approx. 7 years) or so. I was aware that what he was speaking was a very TRUE observation. Furthermore and foremost, it quite possibly could apply to me, also, if I continued on in that direction.
I was breathless ..... (sometimes the truth hurts but it is meant to bring spiritual health) and remember to receive it in the spirit that it is given.

(sometimes the truth hurts but it is meant to bring spiritual health) and remember to receive it in the spirit that it is given. As I said I never heard Warren preach. Because we are so accustomed to preaching about outward form and appearance as being important from the system perspective, it is easy to dismiss the type of preaching that you describe 'sojourning' without seeing that there's a godly (scriptural) perspective too (which was the way you took what Warren said, I liked the way you put it). Paul wrote about a standard for women professing godliness, and he wrote the same standard for men (just different outward manifestations). It's easy with our backgrounds of excessive focus on the system, to throw the baby out with the bathwater. Seems from the response you describe 'sojourning' to Warren's preaching, that his focus was on godly living rather than system maintenance. In any case, he showed me and my friends a spirit consistent with the Spirit of Christ (thanks, ran For that I'm grateful. Glad too to know that Warren eventually found his wonderful Belgium bride, he deserved that happiness and would have made a pretty wonderful husband I'm thinking.

To "above post by tulip2" dated 11-15-07
I suspect he would have made a wonderful husband, meaning, for example, as you stated (too) -- that his concern would be for the spiritual health of his bride --
and would have wanted her to be as the spiritual bride is to be: "without spot or blemish...." Yes, as you stated, there is "an inward and an outward" work to be accomplished in each life. Strange how so many now days seem to think the outward is sooooo unimportant, and want no consideration or work done in that direction. Perhaps the outward work is the hardest as it seems there is soooo much RESISTANCE to that.
What is the expression: the kisses of an enemy are deceitful / versus the wounds of a friend
I hope Warren's "Belgium" bride is in good hands now if he has past away.
