Apostle Dave
Pastor Dave has a heart for helping other churches grow in their love for pursuit of the Holy Spirit like we do in our church every Wednesday (Youth) Thursday (Pursuit) and Sunday.
Guys we have a Pastor that so many people refer to, look up to and turn to when the questions are big. Pastor Maddie (our Youth Pastor) was just telling us while she was at a conference last week that all of the speakers mentioned Pastor Dave by name. And spoke about what he has done for their church. This was a youth leaders conference. This man who has been in the gamer 30 years has impacted this many people for Gods kingdom.
I am so proud of you for not being selfish with our pastor. You have all done such a great job of letting him step into his calling, his mission that God has given him. HAH! That is a hilarious statement when you read it. Pastor Dave is a world changer, none of us humans are “letting” him do anything. But you get my point. Thanks for sharing him with other people. Pastor Dave is truly in his Apostle chapter in life and it is incredible to watch.
And they devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers. And awe came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were being done through the apostles.
Acts 2:42-43
How many of you know travel is exhausting? He is traveling, speaking, pouring out constantly. Let's pray for what God is doing in his life. Let's intercede for this man of God.
The coolest thing is that the people that this church will go into the next generations with have been raised, honed and formed by that same man. Pastor Joseph for over 22 years in some form of high level leadership, including running the whole church for at least the last 6 months with grace and honor in every way. Pastor Tosha was literally raised by Pastors Dave and Donna and is a spiritual powerhouse with a heart of gold. I am so excited to see where this church heads. So grateful for what leadership we have here. How that leadership is in tune with what the Holy Spirit is saying, what God the Father has said and what Jesus is says to us every day. Guys we are blessed.
Lord God, we just pray that you would be with Pastor Dave. We are interceding for him right now. That you would walk with him and he would not grow weary. God continue to bless his ability to influence other leaders toward the path that you have them on. We pray that the anointing you have given him would end up drawing people nearer and nearer. Thank you for guiding all of our leadership no matter what area they are leading from. Amen.
Love you!
Serve Like Jesus!
