Sunday, we got to honor Pastor Jesse and his family.
Pastor Jesse, thank you for the way you love this church and the people in it. Thank you for every prayer, every message, every conversation, every sermon that may or may not have ended when you said “I’m closing,” and every moment you’ve chosen to keep saying yes to what God has called you to do.
Thank you for leading us with a heart that honors where we’ve been while still believing there is so much more ahead. For making room for the Holy Spirit, even when that means the service schedule becomes more of a suggestion. And for reminding us that the presence of God matters more than anything we could ever build.
And to the Jernigan family, thank you for sharing so much of your lives with us. For the sacrifices we see, the ones we never will, and for graciously sharing Pastor Jesse with an entire church family that occasionally needs him all at once. Ministry is something the whole family carries, and we are grateful for each of you.
We love you, we honor you, and we’re grateful for you.
Happy Pastor Appreciation Sunday!
