January 2011 Pastor's Report Evergreen Church

The Lord continues to bless Evergreen Church. As many of you know, God
called me and my family to end our time as Pastor here. We struggled with the call away because we love this church and the Church of God in Arkansas. However, we know that God has a plan to love us and grow us up into the image of the Son. His will is perfect and the way we must go. So we initiated a search for a new pastor. About the same time I received my call, a pastor in Louisiana received a call to begin looking for a new church. God led us together. Our candidate and
his family came to visit in January. We loved them. God has placed in our candidate’s heart the same calling He has given Evergreen Church. It was a perfect match. The Board of Trustees voted unanimously to recommend the candidate to the church. The church will vote on our new pastor January 23rd. God is tying up one loose end. The church will have a pastor that can lead the people where He wants us to go. Praise God.
My family’s path is uncertain at this point. Our desire is to stay in Arkansas, serving God. But the path is currently unknown to us. We continue to seek God and His will for our family. God has never let us down and will sustain us until He comes again for us.
