I thank God for you...

I am grateful to God today for the pastors here in Argonia.

Dave, Tom, Charlie, David, John and Robbie are all great people and they each contribute something special to the church of Argonia.

Dave’s gift to the church here is the gift of administration. He planned and organized what promised to be a very successful day of service at the schools this Saturday. Nearly fifty people are signed up because of his determination to put the church to work in the community.

Tom is our wise and deep thinker. He always urges us to think about what we’re doing. He asks the “does this fit with what the Bible teaches?” question often.

Charlie is an amazing evangelist. He is always telling people, kids especially, about Jesus. We are so blessed to have this man on our Kids Club team.

David has a heart for the poor. He’s led the Bible Church to meet the practical needs of people here and across the county. He encourages prison ministry and love for those desperate for God’s love.

John is the Alliance’s unifier. He is a peacemaker at our meetings. He is a quick-to-pray man.

Robbie is the newest of the bunch. I don’t know her as well as the others, but she seems to be an encourager. She seems to have faith that God can work in Argonia, Kansas, same as he can anywhere else.

I thank my God for each and every one of these leaders and for the many saints who love and serve the congregations they represent.
