We had the privilege yesterday after church services to attend a 70th birthday party for Sherry Davis, a lady from Three Lakes Bible Church where we pastored for 37 years. Jerry and Sherry started coming to Three lakes not many years after it began so we got to know them well and their family became very involved, not only at Three Lakes, but in the community as well.  They taught Sunday school classes, served as Sunday school superintendent, helped organize and teach vacation Bible school, did a “Kids’ Corner” for us once a month for our worship service, helped start a “Jesus Kids” at Elohim Bible Camp for those too young to attend a regular week of summer camp, helped with AWANA, started a Good News Bible Club in Troy that met after school once a week, went to Canada with their family each summer to help a mission conduct vacation Bible school. Jerry has also served as an elder for many years. Needless to say, they have been a tremendous asset and blessing to Three Lakes as well as to us personally. Kathy had gall bladder surgery this past week and guess who it was that came to visit her in the hospital after surgery–Jerry and Sherry!  They have a tremendous heart for others, and a burden to reach the lost for Christ. What a joy as a pastor to have had a couple like them to count on and with whom to serve. I always knew that if I needed someone to assist with a care center service, or any other special ministry, I could call on Jerry and Sherry for help. May their tribe continue to increase!
