A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO HONOR DR. RODNEY LINDSAY, SENIOR PASTOR OF CHARLESTON CALVARY CHURCH OF THE NAZARENE IN GOOSE CREEK, UPON THE OCCASION OF HIS TWENTIETH YEAR OF MINISTRY THERE AND TO WISH HIM GOD'S RICHEST BLESSINGS AS HE CONTINUES TO SERVE THE LORD.

Whereas, it is with great pleasure that the South Carolina House of Representatives honors those individuals who give tirelessly of themselves to nurture the souls of others. Dr. Rodney Lindsay of Charleston Calvary Church of the Nazarene stands among their number as an outstanding minster of the Gospel, one much admired by his colleagues and congregation; and

Whereas, after receiving his Doctorate of Ministry in 1996 from Nazarene Theological Seminary in Kansas City, Missouri, and serving at churches in Kansas, Florida, and Indiana, Dr. Lindsay was invited to interview for the senior pastor position at Charleston Calvary Church of the Nazarene in 1998. The vote to confirm him as pastor was unanimous; and

Whereas, Dr. Lindsay has befriended, mentored, visited, and pastored the congregation over the last twenty years and the church has seen tremendous growth as a result of his leadership. He spearheaded multiple church renovation projects and the building of the Charleston Calvary Christian Life Center; and

Whereas, in addition to his role as senior pastor, he currently serves as studies chairperson for the South Carolina Board of Ministry, chairperson for the Carolinas School of Ministry, and has participated in the Goose Creek Clergy Association, previously serving as the association's president, treasurer, and secretary; and

Whereas, while his leadership has led to many awards and recognitions, perhaps his greatest accomplishment comes from leading more than twenty-five men and women to pursue full-time ministries as pastors, educators, and counselors; and

Whereas, the House of Representatives, cognizant of his many years of spiritual nourishment of the people of South Carolina, wishes to express its grateful thanks to Dr. Lindsay and extend to him the best as he continues to run the race the Lord has set before him. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, honor Dr. Rodney Lindsay, Senior Pastor of Charleston Calvary Church of the Nazarene in Goose Creek, upon the occasion of his twentieth anniversary of ministry there and wish him God's richest blessings as he continues to serve the Lord.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Dr. Rodney Lindsay.
