~ Please join me in prayer ~

Please join me in praying for the family of Senior Pastor Forestt Pollock and his son, Preston. The city of Brandon and surrounding areas have been holding a prayer vigil in hopes of a miracle. Pastor Pollock and his son were flying in a private plane that crashed just outside of Rutherfordton, NC and there were no survivors. Please pray without ceasing for his wife, Dawn, and their 5 children at home. Pastor Pollock was Senior Pastor of Bell Shoals Baptist Church here in Brandon. This is where Kennedy attended pre-K. We have many friends that attend this church and I personally have been involved in many bible studies that take place at the church. This is unimaginable tragedy and we must lift up the family and congregation in prayers. Only God knows why he took Pastor Pollock and his son. We will only know the answer when we see them again in Heaven.

2 Corithians 5:5-9 says that Lord has prepared us for this very thing and that we are to be confident that to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. We may never know how the taking-home of Pastor Pollock and his son will bring glory to the Lord until we all see him again in heaven. We must also remember the words found in 1 Cor. 13:12-13 that says we will one day see things clearly and that our incomplete understanding will be made complete in Glory.
