Retirement Salute
Last night at the Centennial Memorial Temple, Salvationists and friends gathered for a retirement salute to both General and Commissioner Larsson and Commissioners Todd and Carol Bassett. The Temple was packed and the crowd very responsive as we considered the faithfulness of God over the life and ministry of these four terrific people.
Seekers knelt at the mercy seat for grace and the Christ-centered worship was lifted to heaven to the glory of God. We were inspired to be there. The Larssons retired on April first and the Bassetts will retire at the end of this month.
I salute them each here and go on record as being grateful to God for each of them. Their influence on my life and that of the global Salvation Army is significant. Praise the Lord!
Psalms 1:3 (NIV)
3 "He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers."
