I dont even like the word "retired" but that is what others call it. So its official after 53 years of ministry and having served in various capacities, most of which have been pastoring, I have made the decision to step away from pastoring. In no context does this mean Im finished ministering. Im excited about new opportunities and additional dimensions of serving my God and His people. I am thankful to the wonderful people at Black Mountain Church of God for the honor to serve as pastor for the past 3 years. We maneuvered through Hurricane Helene and the great flood of 2024 together. God used our church to help many people during a time of death, destruction and despondency. Im thankful to many friends, contacts and churches who sent funds to be disbursed. It was a joy to give thousands freely to desperate people we came in contact with. Thanks to each of you who made it possible. Tomorrow on Easter Sunday will be my first Sunday without a pulpit but I will be somewhere worshipping my risen savior. Godspeed dear people!
