Recently, Pastor Kevin came to the Elders and expressed that God has called him to start a new church in Fort Mohave this August. As you might imagine, this is an incredible responsibility that needs one’s full attention and focus. As we met and prayed about what Kevin had shared, the Elder’s felt that the best thing that we could do to help Kevin fulfill the calling he believes God has placed on his life would be to release him from his responsibilities at City Bible Church so he could fully focus on starting a new church in Fort Mohave.
As a church, we will pay Kevin three months salary so that he and Codi can fully focus on fulfilling the calling that they believe they have received from God. We are so fortunate to have such a committed group of student ministry staff who will continue to love and serve the students of the Bullhead City area. We will still have many opportunities for students and 20 something’s to be a part of what God is doing here at City Bible Church, including our weekly gatherings on Wednesday nights. We are excited about the many things that will be happening this summer as well, including two mission’s trips and many other opportunities to love and serve our community while connecting with God and one another.
I will be meeting with the students on January 19th to answer any questions and share what God has next for Fusion ministries at City Bible Church. While this news is very sudden, we want you to feel free to connect with us with any questions that you may have. Most importantly, while we may be surprised by this sudden news, we know that God is not surprised. And as we have seen throughout this past year, it is often when we feel most uncertain that God is at work in the most powerful of ways. So let’s look forward to what God has in store for the students and the church in 2011 and beyond.
Pastor Dave
