I am especially thankful this year because of the overwhelming blessings God has granted me and my family in continuing to allow us to serve Oak Crest. God has always been faithful to provide for us abundantly according to his riches in heaven, but Oak Crest is a special blessing. I love this church. I truly and honestly think that our greatest days in the kingdom are ahead of us. Jesus may come back today, but until he does or we leave this life, I pray that we will grow in the truth of the gospel everyday. You have enriched the lives of my family beyond measure. Your love and prayers are a constant support to the work God has called us to at Oak Crest.
I am thankful to be a co-laborer in God’s harvest with you. Every day I serve as pastor of Oak Crest, provides a new blessing. I am blessed to see the lives of teenagers changed through our student ministry. I am blessed to see new lives join our congregation. I am blessed to continue to personally grow in the knowledge of Jesus Christ. Above all these blessings I am personally thankful for, there is an even greater blessing. I am most thankful that God has led me to pastor a church that has a heart for missions, a love for the lost, and most of all a passion for the supremacy and glory of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. “Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen” Ephesians 3: 20-21
In Christ,
