On Sunday, September 17 we took time to grieve, remember, and honor a father in the house, Papa Jerry Cates who passed away from cancer on Thursday, September 14. This Sunday was a very tender and special one as we activated the legacy of Papa Jerry by creating a blessing tunnel for the older generation to bless the younger one. Jerry's requested two weeks prior to this Sunday to sing and declare the song "The Blessing" at the start of Rosh Hashanah and a new beginning for our church.
Marion, Adam, and Lindsey Cates share some memories and encouragement after Jerry's passing, and several of our staff also spoke about Jerry's life and legacy.
Although we deeply miss our papa, we have hope for the harvest ahead and pray that each of you remember Jerry's life, laugh, prayers, and prophetic words and allow them to propel you deeper in the kingdom work God has for us on the earth as it is in heaven. If you need to process or pray with a pastoral staff member, please email info@bighousechurch.com or fill out our weekly connect & prayer request form on the app or website.
Jerry loved each of you as his own family, and so do we.
