Remember: He WANTS your fellowship, and He has done everything possible to make it a reality. He has forgiven your sins, at the cost of His own dear Son. He has given you His Word, and the priceless privilege of prayer and worship. - Billy Graham
And Jesus answered him, “It is written, “‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and him only shall you serve.’” – Luke 4: 8-9

Greetings saints,
It is with joy and sadness in my heart that I write this newsletter article, as this one will be my last one. It has been my honor, joy and pleasure to be your pastor these last 15 months. I have come to know and love each one of you. We have shared some good times through laughter. We have learned more about our Lord and Savior, and some have even been through some challenging times. The sadness comes from leaving Wesley Chapel as your pastor and not seeing you on a weekly basis.
Lois and I are so grateful and appreciative of the way you took us in as one of your own, even as an interim pastor. You showed us love and support that was unsurpassed. Above all, you prayed for us. As of October 1, your new pastor will be Tim Monteith. I have talked to him numerous times, and I believe he is a godly and humble man and will be a great spiritual leader for Wesley Chapel. I know you will welcome and accept him, his wife Amy, and their family as you accepted Lois and me.
My prayer for each of you is that you love the Lord with all your heart, your soul, your mind and your strength. May you draw closer to the Lord and each other.
Goodbyes are never easy, so I am just going to say so long until we meet again.
In service with and for the Master,
Pastor Roger
October 2024
