Welcome to our new leader, Envoy Ray Daniels

Jul 18, 2024

A word from our new corps leader:

In 1990 I graduated from officers training and was commissioned. I married my wife of 32 years, Kathy, and we quickly had a baby. After our first of three sons was born, I continued my involvement with the church, but left officership to pursue other careers for my family. Most recently, I was a special needs bus driver for the Mississinewa Community Schools. I am thrilled to step back into my calling as an officer. I often felt as though I had failed because I did not continue in officership; however, I have realized over the years that God still used me to serve Him. Now I have the chance to further fulfill God’s calling on my life and the heart He has given me for others who are down and out. I see people as I see Jesus, I am a servant for them. I am looking forward to building up the church, especially the young people. I hope to partner with companies in the community to help us all serve our community better. I know that God is sustaining me no matter what, even as I go through change and relearn everything as an envoy. I can find assurance in the fact that God has placed me here in Marion to serve Him and this community.
