Weekly Update – October 2nd, 2020
This week we will have Joe Nogalski with us during our morning worship service. Joe serves as the regional representative for Kansas City for the Missouri Baptist Children’s Home. The Missouri Baptist Children’s Home is one of the organizations our Missouri Baptist State offerings funds for service. As stated on their website, for more than 130 years, Missouri Baptist Children’s Home (MBCH) has shown God’s love to hurting children, youth and families. Originally founded as an orphanage, MBCH has grown into a multi-faceted agency providing therapeutic group homes, family foster care, treatment family care, pregnancy services, transitional living programs, family resource development, human trafficking rescue and group homes for adults with developmental disabilities. MBCH is constantly assessing the needs of children, youth and families in Missouri and working to design responses to those needs. Regardless of the growth and changes in ministries, MBCH strives to provide the best professional care within the context of an unapologetically Christian environment.
Joe Nogalski has been married to his wife, Joyce, for 35 years. He has two children who are both married and serving the Lord. He also has two amazing grandchildren. Joe has over 34 years of ministry experience. He has been a senior pastor for 25 years and he is a graduate of The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary with a Masters of Divinity in church growth. Before coming to MBCH he started the humanitarian outreach, Care4Ghana, and has helped launch Crossing for Mercy which is now Mission3:18. With being at MBCH for just under a year, he looks forward to being able to use his experience to connect with pastors and churches for Missouri Baptist Children’s Home.
Again, this week we hear from Joe Nogalski from the Missouri Baptist Children’s Home. I hope that you will join us in person or by livestream.
Serving Him with You,
Pastor Michael Nelson
