New Deacons

Just as in Acts 13 our church expressed a clear mandate from God about the calling of God on the men presented to us for deacon candidates. Each man was affirmed with a very supportive vote from the congregation; nearly unanimous for each. These men will serve our church family for many years to come with a passion for Christ and a love for his people.

Please join me in praying for these men and their families (Ben Carter, Jim Coffman, Mike Davis, and Keith King). We will express our earliest support for them by our prayers and words of encouragement. They will most appreciate your prayers and words, but also remember that as servant leaders they will be thankful to serve alongside of you in ministry.

First Baptist Church Harlingen is blessed to have such godly leadership, especially in our deacons. May we always love and support those that God has placed in leadership in our wonderful church.

Serving the servants of Christ,
Bro. Wade
