Father, You made Jesus head over all things to the church.  Praise be to our Savior God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. And it was a gracious thing to us that Jesus gave us godly elders to guide us and lead us and love us through the teaching and preaching of the very Words of God which have been preserved for us in our bibles. You have called bro Michael to join Redeemer Church in Lubbock Texas in starting a new church within the growing west Texas city. And he and his family will make disciples there by the power of the Spirit, just like they have been doing here for 15 1/2 years. And the host of believers known as ARCC will continue to lift up one another and the new members that God will bring into the church.  God will use our remaining elders, Roy Stokes and Mike Boorgard to teach and preach the words of God during our Sunday services and to disciple other godly men to be future elders who will lovingly lead the church in the way everlasting. Now bless Roy and Mike and their wives Carol and Greta as they take on the mantle that is passed to them now. In Jesus’ name amen!
