Tom Seale
(Pastor of Collinsville's Meadowcreek United Methodist Church),
passed away this morning of a heart attack. The entire congregation
has lost a wonderful pastor and a dear friend. The funeral will
likely be Monday. The planning is still going on now. District
Superintendent, Maurice Majors, will give the sermon on Sunday.
The last thing the pastor mentioned on Sunday was gearing up for
the back to school drive. We are hoping to raise $10,000.00 to
purchase all the necessary supplies for students whose families
cannot purchase their supplies. We will continue that ministry.
