SPECIAL PRAYER FOR THE MASHBURN FAMILY: Commissioner Williams
said it was a very trying time for the county manager's family. Williams encouraged
everyone to send a sympathy card to the family or to keep them in their prayers due to the loss
of their son and brother. Williams said the county was fortunate to have a man, such as Joel
Mashburn, who had such strong Christian beliefs.
Commissioner Johnson then led everyone in the following prayer for the family.
"Heavenly Father, we've all been here a number of years, and we've come to admire
Joel and his family. From time to time, we've had our differences, but we can honestly say,
we've never observed him to take a position on anything that would do harm to anyone he knew
or to this county. He's been faithful, and yet, Lord, in spite of his faithfulness, this great tragedy
and sorrow has been visited upon him. As mortal human beings, we don't always understand
your ways, and why you allow things to happen. But, as such, is the essence of faith. We pray
tonight that Joel 's faith will strengthen that of his family, and that you will encourage him, and
draw him close to you That Joel will remember through your presence the joy of his salvation
and that of his family members as well While it may be a dark hour, it may be his greatest hour,
when he affirms his election in Christ. May he use this opportunity to bless the lives of those
around him, and the people in the future who will suffer a loss such as this. In the tame of
Christ, we lift him up to you, and pray your blessings upon him and his family. In Christ's name,
AMEN. "
