For Pastor Pat & Debbie Dean

At the end of this month, Pastor Pat & Debbie Dean will be retiring from over 50 years of faithful service at First Bible Church to reunite with their family in North Carolina.

Pastor Pat & Mrs. Dean are true pillars of the work in SI, the first “boots on the ground” from Ohio, coming to NYC weeks before even Pastor Mel arrived.

If you know the Deans or have been blessed by their ministry and would like to leave a card, a note, an offering, we will have a special box on Sunday where you can deposit your note or blessing.

We will hand deliver everything to the Deans this week before they leave.

Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine.

—1 Timothy 5:17
