We Need to Pray for God’s Man

After almost 18 years of serving as our Associate Pastor of Worship Ministries at our Springdale Campus, Buster Pray is leaving to begin a new ministry. His last Sunday with us will be on July 30. I am grateful to God for him, for his ministry, for all he has done in Northwest Arkansas, and his contributions to our ministry here. We will miss many things about him, but I have always appreciated his vision, tenacity, and commitment to excellence. I love Buster like a brother, as we have raised our families together.

Buster Pray will be relocating to Atlanta, Georgia, to begin a new ministry called, PureChurch. This ministry will serve churches in so many ways, not only in regards to worship ministries, but coaching church leaders in technology, facility planning, the creation of dual campuses, and leadership. He will be very successful in expanding his influence in the 2nd half of his life. Yes, they will be members of Andrew’s church, his son, who serves his church in the same capacity his Dad served us all of these years.

We need to pray for Buster and Martha Pray. We need to ask the Lord to sell their home very soon, lead them to the right home in Atlanta, open doors of ministry to other churches across America, meet their needs in every way, and show His mighty favor upon them. I believe in Buster and I bless God’s calling upon him to do this ministry for churches. This is what our church is about:  helping other churches.

Remember, this coming Sunday we will have Summer Freedom Celebration at both campuses, and our Springdale Campus will have Buster Pray lead for the final major patriotic event.  I look forward to preaching God’s Word this week at both of our campuses, so pray for me as well. Bring a guest with you this Sunday.
