Until we meet again…..

 Tonight our church’s youth pastor of 18 years announced that he would be stepping down. Tonight although it may have been difficult and full of emotions and tears I saw a glimpse of how it must feel to know the Father’s love. To many you are a personification of the Father’s love. I have never in my life seen so much love and admiration poured out deservingly so for one man. I imagine that is what it must have felt like being one of the 12 disciples constantly in the presence of Jesus. Although I may not have known him as long as many others the impact he has had on my life is just as great. Im thankful for the friendship, wisdom and laughs you have shared with me. 1 John 4:19 states that we love because he loved us first. You lived this out each day as our youth pastor and friend. You loved the lost sheep just as much as the flock that stayed at home. I once read a quote that said you have never lived until you have done something for someone that no one can repay, well if that is the case then you have lived many times over BP because we could never repay you for everything you have done in so many lives while being genuinely you. I am excited for this next chapter God has planned for your life and I will be praying and cheering for you my friend. 

 

Thank You for everything Brother Brian.
