Alabama Evangelists

The 94th Alabama District Council convened in Dothan Alabama to elect a new District Superintendent to replace Rev. Bill Glover who retired due to health reasons.

After 12 ballots Rev Ken Draughon, who has served as District Missions Director was elected to fill the remainder of Bro. Glover’s term which is two years. At the 96th District Council, the position of Superintendent will be voted on again.

All the Alabama Evangelists would like to congratulate the following people who were elected, or re-elected to office:

Rev. Ken Draughon, District Superintendent

Rev. Steve Mason, DYD

Rev. Cyndi Draughon, WM President

Rev. Guy Mims, New DMD

Rev. David Strahan, Assistant DMD

Rev. Michael Sharp, Assistant CE Director.

On Tuesday April 21st evangelists and their wives joined together for a wonderful meal at Longhorn Steakhouse. A good time was had by all! There will be changes coming for our Alabama evangelists fellowship as soon as the new District Superintendent officially takes office. We will be meeting together and discussing strategies on how evangelists can partner with local churches to help both reap as well as keep the harvest that is coming in. We will keep you updated as these developments take place. And if you have any suggestions you would like to pass along to us, feel free to send an email to david@revivalnow.org. You can also contact me by phone at 706-773-1546.

I encourage our pastors to visit the websites of our evangelists and cosider having them for a special service! If we can every serve you in any way, please don’t hesitate to contact us!

Hello Alabama Evangelists!

Sorry for the silence; it’s been extremely busy here as I know is has been with you all!

By now you have heard that Bro. & Sis. Glover will be retiring at this District Council and they are honoring them with a special reception on Tuesday night April 21st at the evening service. If you have not received any information about it, please contact the District Office immediately. I would also encourage you to send a letter of appreciation to Bro. & Sis. Glover for their years of faithful service to the Alabama family. No other man has fought for and promoted the office and calling of the evangelist like Bill Glover has in his years in the District office. I count it an honor to have been able to have served with him.

Also, on Tuesday April 21st at 12noon we will have our annual Evangelists and Wives Luncheon at the Longhorn Steakhouse in Dothan. This will be my treat to you as a way of thanking you for serving the Lord in this unique calling of the evangelist! But you _*MUST*_ RSVP me by  _*replying to this email*_ or call me at *706-773-1546*. This will help us keep the  restaurant  apprised of the number of people who will be attending.

I want to thank you for allowing me to serve with you during these last few years. Many changes are coming in the role evangelists will have in our Fellowship in the days to come. Due to the financial situation across the Fellowship, even the National Evangelists Office is also having to scale back it’s influence in Springfield. But no matter what happens, we know God has called us to serve the Body of Christ in this capacity! Now more than ever, we must be faithful to our Lord and to His calling on our lives! Knowing He who called us will be faithful to bring increase into our lives and ministries until that day we stand before Him! May we all hear Him say, “well done good and faithful servant!”

Please RSVP me today by email or by phone and reserve your place for our Evangelists and Wives Luncheon.

Blessings,
