A Miracle in Our Midst: Celebrating Pastor John Water’s Successful Liver Transplant

By Drake Hunter | Commentary, RMV NE CO Newsroom, Rocky Mountain Voice Every now and then, a moment arrives that stops us in our tracks and reminds us of the sheer goodness and mercy woven into the fabric of life. This is one of those moments. Just two days ago, our Lead Pastor at Elevating Life Church in Fort Morgan, CO, Pastor John Waters, received a donor liver and came through surgery with flying colors.

Don’t run aimlessly. Don’t score for the wrong side. Keep your eyes on the goal line and move the ball forward for God’s Goodness and Kingdom. When my boys were young, they loved playing sports like baseball and football.
