Ecclesiastes 3 talks about a time for everything and a season for every activity. “A time to plant and a time to uproot, a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance.” My time here in Dallas has entailed all of those and looks like it’s coming to an end as my last Sunday at New Life Bible Fellowship was last week. My wife and I have a contract on our home and we hope to be closer to our families but are just taking one day at a time. I still desire to be in ministry in some form or fashion and we really hope to take Sabrina’s photography business to the next level.
Even though we will most likely be in Dallas through the summer, I want to thank everyone for their love and support these past 3 ½ years. I had never been a Youth Pastor before and the people at NLBF gave me a chance. I know my life and my family’s lives have been affected in so many positive ways and hope our lives have affected others as well. I also look forward to hearing my former youth serve God in awesome ways.
There is so much I could say, but I do know that I am a different man today from when I first came here. God has given me a greater confidence in the gifts and abilities that He has given me. Has taught me that love, obedience and trust are the 3 most important things He asks of me. That even though you may leave when you thought you would be at a place longer, you can still hold your head up high knowing that you did your best. We our thankful for this season, grateful for the many friends we have made and are excited to see how this next chapter enfolds. Please keep our family in your prayers.-The Whites
