Passing of Bishop Eugene Weakley

We are saddened to report the passing of Bishop Eugene Weakley. He was a giant of a Christian and minister of the gospel of Jesus Christ. He served as State Overseer of TN Church of God of Prophecy for 14 years. We were blessed to serve under his leadership for 10 years as pastors. He will be greatly missed but we rejoice in that his suffering is over and he is now with his Savior and Lord - Jesus Christ.

Karen and I were with the family along with his Pastor Verlin Thornton, Presiding Bishop of The Church of God of Prophecy in Tennessee, Bishop E. C. McKinley and several other pastors, members and friends. His passing was sad but it was also a time of singing and praise and realizing that he reached his final destination - to be in the perfect presence of the Lord for ever and ever.

We continue to pray for the family. Arrangements will be announced later.
