As you may have heard, I [retired] on March 29th. I count myself blessed to have served these last eight years as your Associational Missionary. Having the opportunity to visit among and assist our churches, attend the Monday Ministers’ Meetings, work with our pastors, church staff members and, otherwise, serve ORBA has been for me a great source of joy.
As I retire, Kay and I will continue to reside in Brooklet and look forward to getting more involved in our home church and Sunday School Class at FBC Statesboro. Some have asked me if there is some reason for my retirement. The answer is that, after much prayer, conversation and consideration, the Lord has led us to this decision. At 69 years of age and nearly 38 years in full-time ministry, it is time for us to seek new ways and avenues of ministry and service for our Lord.
We love you all and will be praying for the Search Committee as they seek a new associational missionary, that they will clearly sense God’s direction to the man He has prepared to serve as ORBA’s next missionary.
Still walking with and serving Jesus,
Greg Abercrombie
