Church update



The leadership received an email from Jason Rodenbeck Thursday informing us that Vangie has made the painful decision to end her relationship with Ten Mile Christian Church in Meridian Idaho where she accepted a staff position at the beginning of this year. There was a real expression of pain they have been through in Jason’s note. Vangie and he have gone through tremendous turmoil over the past few months and the decision became increasingly clear that it was time to move in a different direction. Jason has secured employment teaching and they will be moving back to the Cumming area in September. There are obvious expenses involved in making such a large move across the country.

We would like to invite our Castle family and friends to make a contribution to help offset some of the cost involved in this move. We will receive these gifts this Sunday, August 23 and next Sunday, August 30. If you are writing a check for this designated purpose, please do NOT write Jason and Vangie’s name on the check. You can attach a note to it or verbally inform one of the leaders of your intent. If you give cash, attach a note to it or place it in an envelope and write on the envelope or, again, verbally inform a leader that you wish for your gift to be used for Jason and Vangie’s expenses.

It goes without saying that Jason and Vangie worshiped with us and generously served Castle for a number of years. Let’s be generous in our prayers and resources for them during this difficult and trying period in their life.
