It was only last month that we held our annual leadership summit. We were privileged to commission two new works: Life Gate Church in Charleston South Carolina and Kingdom Community Fellowship International in Lexington Kentucky.
In fact, here is the commissioning service where Dr. Ron & Libby Hamilton were set in to oversee Life Gate Church and Chuck and Diane Bartle were set over the Kingdom Community Fellowship International.
Today, on October 21st, 2023, Kingdom Community Fellowship International ordained their first elder, Sarah Church. Yes, that’s right. That really is her name and I cannot tell you how thrilled we are.
The Bartle family has been ministering for decades and I love the example they’ve set. Chuck and Diane remind me of Acts 21:7 which speaks of Phillip the evangelist who had four daughters that did prophesy. They only have two daughters but they’ve raised them up in the nuture and admonition of the LORD. They are raising up godly families and both of their daughters have proven prophetic gifts and Sarah has been leading worship for ages.
So join us in congratulating them and praying they hit the mark for their assignment in Christ.
You’ll find links to both churches above, so if you are in the greater Lexington Kentucky, or Charleston South Carolina area, I’d encourage you to visit them.
