I attend a different fellowship and do not know Pastor Dave. My friend and I, however, will be praying for him.
The Lord give all of you grace in your times of trouble.

Kary,

What a great tribute to a great man! I echo the same praise for Dave. It was such a pleasure to serve with him at Community Grace for 10 years… I remember how intimidating it was to interview with “Dr. Plaster” and others leaders for my youth position there… then came the strange transiton from “Dr. Plaster” to just call me Dave. A truly brilliant man, a scholar, a leader, a humble servant. I’ll never forget the night he coached me through handling my first hospital call when our elder board moderator died. I talked to him on my cell all the way from the hospital to the family’s home – I asked “Dave, what do I say? What do I do”? His wise answer was – “don’t say anything!” Just be there, cry with them, pray with them, be quiet with them…” He helped teach me how to be a pastor. Over the years I sought his counsel on several major decisions… what a neat Godly man! God please intervene on his behalf SO THAT YOUR NAME MAY BE GLORIFIED.
