Death of Rev. Roger Hopson
It is with a heavy heart that we inform you of the death of our beloved pastor, Rev. Roger Hopson. We are grateful for our District Superintendent, Rev. David Weatherly, and our Bishop William McAlilly, of the Tennessee-Western Kentucky Conference of the United Methodist Church, who are attentive to our needs and are aiding us during this period of our grief. We know that our God lives; and that He has our hearts. We yet believe in the Holy Spirit, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting.
