Well, good morning. It is such an honor and such a pleasure to be with you guys.

Of course, we at Trinity Fellowship in Amarillo, Kim and I have been there 25 years and we have just loved seeing

what God's doing at Gateway Church. I actually remember when we were there 25 years ago,

when the elders gathered around Pastor Robert with Pastor Jimmy Evans and laid hands on him and

the team and sent them out. And of course we've been so blessed by you guys over the years and we just so appreciate

Pastor Robert and Debbie. In fact part of the reason that we're in ministry came out of business

seven years ago and went into ministry

was because of a word that Pastor Robert gave to us

during our presbytery in 2002,

talking about that transition that God had for us.

And then just all of the ministry along the way.

I remember at the Southlace campus right over here

at conference about two years ago.

Glower just totally impacted me,

saved my life in ministry.

So I just come and just say,

it's such an honor and such a pleasure to be with you guys.

We feel like family and you guys feel like family.

So we just love you so much and it's great to be with you.

I want to introduce my family that's here.

This is my wife, Kim, and she is with us here.

And we've been married 30 years.
