Larry is a great facility director for our church! And we are Enjoying this next adventure in our Journey with Jesus!

New renovated sign thanks to Larry Stolldorf. Him and his wife have been such continuous blessings on our community. One example of the MANY folks who have stepped up in recent months to fill roles and support the church body.

We are honored to announce Jim Rodgers as The Old Bell Tower Church’s new Interim Pastor.

This new chapter of our congregation is set to be a time of healing and patience. Jim and his wife Maryann are old friends of the church and old friends of our late Pastor Scott Johnson and his family.

Jim has many years of ministry experience, particularly in the realm of grieving and transition. He will guide our church in this grieving process and he will, over the next several months, assist us in paving the path for the future of The Old Bell Tower Church and our eventual search for a full time Pastor.

Thank you for joining the Old Bell Family, Jim and Maryann Rodgers!

The Lord decided that Scott Johnson finished his race on earth March 12. His pain is gone. His grief from missing Gennifer is gone. He is with Jesus face to face… and reunited with Gennifer. His happiness now is beyond imagination. Our grief is deep but we will go on.

Grieving people just need our presence—but maybe NOT our words. Job’s friends provided silent support during their first seven days with Job (Job 2:13). That’s one of the lessons I learned after my first funeral service from a tragedy 36 years ago today: https://www.facilityministry.org/blog/gods-sufficiency
