🎉🎂 Happy Birthday, Ruling Elder Troy E. Bethune! 🎂🎉

Please help us celebrate and honor our beloved Ruling Elder, Elder Troy E. Bethune!

Although his birthday was on July 11, we certainly do not intend to omit this special occasion. As Elder Bethune himself has reminded us, "We're celebrating all month!" So today, we gladly join in celebrating the life, leadership, and legacy of the man whom God continues to use mightily.

Ruling Elder Bethune faithfully leads our district with grace, wisdom, humility, and the unadulterated Word of God. His leadership equips the body of Christ with knowledge, understanding, and the spiritual strength to endure while pursuing God's divine purpose.

His passion is to see souls come to Christ through stewardship and discipleship, and he continually advances the mission of connecting Christ's Church throughout the world. We also celebrate his recent appointment as Superintendent of Foreign Missions, a testament to his unwavering commitment to the Kingdom of God.

Today, we pray that the Lord will fulfill every promise over your life and answer every prayer according to His perfect will. May He strengthen your hands for the work He has assigned to you, multiplying His favor, grace, wisdom, and abundance. May you continue to pursue His purpose with boldness and prevail in every season.

Thank you for your faithful leadership, your steadfast example, and your heart for God's people.

We love you, Elder Bethune, and we pray God's richest blessings upon you always!

"The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way." — Psalm 37:23 (KJV)
