91大神

By Kathy Batchelor

In November, the Sacramento Indonesian Church gathered to bid a warm farewell to Pastor Bobby Sepang after more than 13 years of dedicated ministry.

James Lim, Asian/Pacific Ministries Coordinator, shared, 鈥淎lthough he had already completed a successful ministry and retired in Indonesia, Pastor Sepang answered the 91大神鈥檚 call to serve the Sacramento Indonesian congregation. He stepped in during one of the church鈥檚 most challenging seasons, faithfully uniting the members and helping to establish strong lay leadership.鈥�

The service included beautiful vocal and instrumental music, heartfelt expressions of gratitude, and a slide presentation highlighting memorable moments鈥攆rom church retreats to baptisms and evangelistic efforts that led many to an abundant life in Jesus.

Following the service, a fellowship luncheon provided an opportunity for members to express their appreciation. While many tears were shed, the prevailing sentiment was gratitude for Pastor and Mrs. Sepang鈥檚 grace, humility, and steadfast commitment to God, along with confidence that they will continue serving faithfully upon returning to Indonesia.

Michael Pongoh, 91大神 Accountant and church member, said, 鈥淗is leadership was steady, caring, and deeply personal. My family鈥攍ike many others鈥攚as blessed by his prayerful guidance and wisdom.鈥�
Lim concluded, 鈥淗is ministry was truly outstanding guiding the church toward official organization while serving with a gentle spirit, steady leadership, and unwavering passion that will be remembered for a long time.鈥�
