				Elder			

		
		
				

			
As a teenager, the church family at MBC played an important role in helping me come to a saving faith in Jesus. Two of our pastors performed the wedding for my wife, Denise, and me. Our son,  Gunnar and daughter, Chloe, have been raised in MBC, and have each placed their faith in Christ due, in part, to the strong Biblical teaching we have always had in this church family. I pray you will find a church family that means a much to you as this one means to me.

		


				
							
		
	







	


				
							

				Elder			

		
		
				

			
Kim is a fourth-generation son of Midlothian. He lives on the farm his great-grandparents bought in 1892. Now retired, Kim’s original career was in education. He served forty-four years in Cedar Hill ISD as their Chief Financial/Operations Officer. He began attending MBC in January of 1974–a mere six months after its official founding. MBC only had about 25 people attending at that time! He considers it a blessing and privilege to have served as MBC’s treasurer for many of those years. Although a bachelor with no children, Kim has had the great joy of mentoring many “adopted” sons who help him on his farm. He also serves as a mentor to several awesome Re:Generation participants. After the Savior, the family at MBC is the love of Kim’s life. However, he clings to Revelation 22:20b…”Even so, come Lord Jesus.”
