We look around ourselves and we see the pressures of life and the chaos of the world. However, we are so blessed to have a local group of clergymen that have banned into a unique gathering.

This is the Doniphan Ministerial Alliance. These are the sheperds of individual churches that have united for the greater good. Their unique bond crosses denominations. They are from the Church of God, Methodist, UPC, Baptist, and more. They are our leaders, shepards, caregivers, and brethren.

I am not sure if the folks of our community appreciate how truly blessed we are to have Christian men and women of this caliber in our lives.

The Alliance meets weekly to share concerns and issues that need to be addressed. They pray for us, our community, and each other. They are people of action! They are always present to support and encourage our youth, which we so desperately need in today’s world.  

In Our community, it’s not, “My church is better than yours,” but rather, “If we team up, look how much better we can fully serve God.” This is being accomplished, thanks to our Doniphan Ministerial Alliance. Through them we are truly blessed! As my friend Kent says…See you in Church.
