The D’Abadie Pentecostal Church said farewell to their former pastor Rev. Phillip Gentle, and his wife Charmaine, on Sunday 23rd March in a stirring 4-hour tribute to 19 and a half years of inspiring service. Along with church members the farewell was attended by representatives of the District, Assistant Presiding Bishop Rev. Warren Harper, who brought greetings on behalf of the Presiding Bishop, Rev. Raymond Boca (whose wife was in attendance); District Secretary Rev. Gwendolyn Smith; District Treasurer Rev. Nolan Warner; Man-at-Large Pastor Lindon Mitchel; along with several present and former North-East District pastors: Rev. Winston Lewis; Rev. Albert Gray (who ministered the Word); Rev. Peter Regis; and Rev. Irving Smith (immediate past pastor at Bethel World Outreach Ministries, where the Gentles now serve). The Vacancy Notice for D’Abadie’s next pastor can be seen here.
