New Youth Pastor : Jerad Watson

Pastor Kip writes a letter to the church:

Friends,


Please make plans to be at Silver Run this Sunday! Sunday will be a special day as Silver Run welcomes Brother Jerad Watson!

The entire Youth Pastor Search team and I, as your pastor, recommend Brother Jerad Watson to the church as our next Youth Pastor.

All of us see God's call in Brother Jerad's life. Brother Jerad is a deep Christian with a passion for Youth, Evangelism and Missions. He has been a teacher of youth since he was in the 12th Grade. Brother Jerad has a passion for preaching and teaching God's Word. He will lead our Youth to a deeper understanding of God's Word.

As you know, the Youth Pastor is a very critical position at Silver Run. Our Youth Pastor impacts the youth in our church, in our community and beyond. Our youth need a man to lead them that loves Jesus and that is called to the Youth Ministry.

Brother Jerad will be paid as a part-time Youth Pastor, but their is no such thing as a part-time pastor. Like any good pastor, Brother Jerad will be on call 24/7 and the ones he ministers to will be on his mind most of the time.

In my discussions with him, I know Brother Jerad is not coming to Silver Run for a paycheck, he is coming to fulfill God's call in his life.

In addition to serving our Youth and leading our Youth leaders, the Youth Pastor is called on to minister to the entire church when needed. Our duty as a church and in particular, my duty as pastor, is to make sure we don't overwhelm Brother Jerad with too many things to do.

Pray for Brother Jerad, Pray for our Youth & most of all, Pray for God's Will to be done.

"May the words of my mouth &
the meditation of my heart
be pleasing in YOUR Sight,
O LORD, my Rock & my Redeemer."

Psalm 19: 14

Jesus Loves You and I do too,
Kip McKee
