The End of a Season

Since graduating from Liberty University this past spring, Wes knew God was leading him to attend seminary. The next step of his educational journey would be whether to attend Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary (SWBTS) or New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary. God led Wes to SWBTS.

At the beginning of this process we believed Wes would continue to serve as pastor of Trinity Baptist Church in Valliant and commute one day a week to SWBTS in Fort Worth; however, God would ultimately lead us in a different direction. After much prayer and a variety of circumstances we saw God leading us to step out on faith and make a move to the Fort Worth area.

On Sunday Wes announced his resignation to Trinity Baptist Church in Valliant. He will continue to serve as pastor until the end of August taking his last week of vacation the first week of September. Our official last day in Valliant will be September 7, 2011.

We are saddened to leave the many friends God brought into our lives during the nearly six years here. We've learned a great deal and will always look back with fond memories of the friends we've made.

Thank you Trinity Baptist Church members friends for loving our family. We will miss you and continue to pray that God will use you to show his love to Valliant and the surrounding areas.

We are so going to miss you all too! Every friendship has ups & downs. I'm thankful for God's love, forgiveness, and grace through the friendship he's given our family with yours.

Did you know that Hurst is really close to my bff in Lewisville? :) I'm excited for you guys and sad at the same time. I know Wes will do well at seminary. Wishing you all the best and praying for you always!

You are so talented and gifted to have put this all together for everyone to enjoy. Each time I have looked at the video I have cried for joy and with sadness, too. I assume our paths will cross in the future because I hope and plan so but if they do not, go with God and may He lead you and watch over your family in all the days ahead. Sent with love and another bucket of tears,
Sharon
