I received a phone call on the morning of April 8th from my long time friend and mentor, Pastor Leonard Navarre. Leonard told me he has resigned from Valley View Christian Church in Edgewood, New Mexico. I do not know of any Pastor more loved than Leonard. Leonard and his lovely wife Diana will be moving to Lubbock, Texas to be near their son Brandon and his lovely wife Lisa and the grandchildren. What an AWESOME MOVE! God and family! Amen!

Leonard and Diana formed a powerful team in serving the Edgewood area at Valley View. Now they follow God’s leading to Lubbock!

I met Leonard about 8 years ago when Pastor Don Kimbro introduced me to him. Leonard had just returned from a mission trip to India. From that time we have been very close Friends, Leonard has taught me much over the years, he helped prepare me for what God had planned for me here at FGGAM. Now God has plans for Leonard and Diana in Lubbock.

You see life is all about serving God, and Leonard and Diana have set the example for us all.

It’s all about God.

To live a God-centered life, you must focus on God’s purposes, not your own plans. Try and see things from God’s perspective rather than from your distorted human view.

Sharon and I thank Leonard and Diana for all their Godly support over the years and I will always remember the days Leonard drove from Edgewood to Albuquerque to help me at KKIM radio during New Mexico News and Views. I cannot begin to tell you how much I love this man!

These scriptures fit the life of Leonard and Diana………..

1 Samuel 12:24

Only fear the Lord and serve him faithfully with all your heart. For consider what great things he has done for you.

Colossians 3:23-24

Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ.

2 Corinthians 9:7

Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.

1 Corinthians 15:58

Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.

Romans 12:1

I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.

Pictured here is me and Pastor Leonard as I honored Leonard at the KIIM 40th Birthday Party 4 years ago. Leonard was so valuable to the radio ministry of KKIM, having helped anchor New Mexico News and Views for years and with his own program, “Your Bible Boost”. Also we have included one of our favorite pictures of Leonard and Diana.
