Title: Please pray for our former pastor, his family and his church
Post by: jinxmchue on June 30, 2009, 03:07:03 PM
Last night at a youth event, the church's youth pastor and another youth leader drowned at a lake. Two of our former pastor's kids were there at the time and saw everything that happened. Authorities are still searching for the youth pastor's body. The youth pastor left behind 4 extremely young children (all under 6). Our former pastor has been pastor of his current church for about a year. This will be a very trying time for all involved.

News reports says they were rescuing a young boy who was struggling while swimming.

How sad.

As a past youth leader, my heart goes out to the families involved. All will be included in my prayers.

What a thing for children to have to witness. Sounds like the youth pastor & leader were doing God's work right up to the end.
