Greg Howell, senior pastor at Community Grace Brethren Church in Goldendale, Wash., was admitted to the hospital on October 19 with COVID-19. On November 7, Greg’s wife, Colleen, sent the following update:
Please let our dear church family know that we really appreciate their prayers, love, and encouragement. We know that God is in control and He has our best in mind. Most of our kids are here or are on their way. We love you. We truly feel God’s comfort and peace. Greg keeps declining. His body is tired. He will see Jesus soon. We are sad, but know that God must need him more. If we were sitting down together to pray for his health he would tell God that if his ministry was done here that maybe some would come to the Lord through his death. He is so ready to see his Savior.
