Dear Faithwalk Jackson Community,

We come to you today with some sorrowful and exciting news. Just as the seasons must change, so shall we. Bro. David Lucius has been serving as our community pastor for many years, and he has recently expressed to the Secretariat that he is being led by the Holy Spirit to resign this position effective December 31, 2024. Bro. David has worked tirelessly for the past 11 years helping to build and minister to the Faithwalk Jackson Community. “It is not about me” and “How’s your prayer life? Are you praying with your wife/husband?” are words spoken by Bro. David that have challenged and encouraged us all as we prepared for each walk as well as in our own individual lives. His words will continue to be repeated and passed down to challenge and encourage new believers for many years to come. We are so grateful for his wisdom, guidance and direction throughout these years.

With this being said, the Faithwalk Jackson nominating committee has recently met and is very excited to offer the recommendation of Bro. Scott Jewel as the next community pastor. Bro. Scott attended Walk to Emmaus #104 and began serving in the Faithwalk Jackson Community on walk #3. Since that time, he has served faithfully on both the men’s and women’s walks. He began his ministry in 1987 as a youth pastor and later served many years as the pastor at Beech Grove Baptist Church in Dyer, TN. Please join us at the Gathering on Nov. 2, 2024 at the West Jackson Baptist Church to wish Bro. David well in his new endeavors and welcome Bro. Scott as our new community pastor.

On another exciting note, the Faithwalk Jackson Secretariat would like to joyfully announce the lay leaders for Faithwalk Jackson 47 and 48:

Eddie Kiestler and Rachel Jeter.

Please remember Eddie and Rachel in your prayers as they seek the Lord’s will in assembling these teams. Both walks will be held at the Lakeshore Campground in Eva, TN.

Thank you for your continued support of the Faithwalk ministry and your willingness to serve. Please pray for each of these lay leaders and for the men and women that will experience the great love of God on the Spring weekends.

In His Service,

FWJ Secretariat
