A Note from Pastor Roger

Good afternoon, Church Family.
You'll remember a couple weeks ago that I shared with you the passing of one of my mentors, friends, and ministry colleagues, our Pastor Emeritus, Ronny W. Barner. He served on our staff for 55 years. He poured so faithfully into me and anyone who ever served on staff or was in his ministry. On Saturday, I will have the honor to preside over his memorial service.
The service will be at our West U Baptist campus at 10:30am. If you cannot attend and would like to watch online, you can do so at this private YouTube link.
Please pray for Ruth and her family as we honor this great servant of the Lord. He will be deeply missed by so many as he touched so many of our lives. If you'd like to contribute to the Ronny Barner Music Scholarship, you can do so by sending a donation to

On Sunday, we will continue our study in the book of Daniel with our second installment of "Into the Fire." If you want to spend some time in Daniel 2 before Sunday, you can get a head start. Come ready to learn and bring a friend who you think might benefit from this study. If you are unable to attend, or you'd like to share the service with someone farther away, you can join us via the app, on our livestreams page, or at youtube.com/cityriseorg.
We covet your prayers!
