My Dear Brother David,

It is with bittersweet feeling that I write this letter to officially inform you that I will be resigning from my position as Adult Discipleship Minister with Searcy First United Methodist Church, effective two weeks from today, October 13, 2016. As I have often stated, I enjoy this ministry opportunity more than any I have ever had and will always be thankful for the opportunity that you, your staff and this congregation have afforded me. What a blessing you have been to my life and service to our God and his people!

The Staff Parish relations committee of Searcy First United Methodist Church is excepting no more applications for the children's minister position. While we have not made a hire, the committee respectfully announces we are no longer excepting applications. Thank you. And, please keep this hiring process in your prayers.
