It's sad when your pastor is gone. When he is in such high demand as to be gone from us. Pastor Mitchell used to go to great lengths, and some additional cost, to be home on Sunday morning. It was rare for him not to be preaching in Prescott on Sunday morning.
Pastor Mitchell did not hide out in his office until service started. He was always out among his people being friendly and cordial. Pastor Mitchell was a pastor, who did the work of evangelism by doing salvation/healing crusades. He was not a celebrity.
Having been in the Prescott church, it is hard for me not to compare where I am to where I was. Pastor Mitchell was such a fine preacher of practical righteousness that it is hard not to compare every sermon to his.
"For though you have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet you have not many fathers; for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel." 1Cor. 4:15
I am grateful for the ministry in my life.
