It is with both profound sorrow and divine peace that we announce Dr. Jerry Savelle, a beloved husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, pastor, mentor, and resolute friend, has stepped into his eternal reward this day, Monday, April 15, 2024. Dr. Savelle lived a life marked by an adventure in faith.
Brother Jerry’s journey on earth was one of immense impact, rooted in the powerful love of Jesus Christ. His life testified to the beauty of grace and power of faith. As he often reminded us, through God’s hands, “nobodies” are turned into champions, and today, he himself has received the crown of righteousness laid up for all who are called according to His purpose.
While our hearts miss his physical presence, we are comforted by the Holy Spirit and filled with a joy that transcends earthly understanding. As the Apostle Paul encouraged the Thessalonians, we stand firm in our hope and the knowledge that this separation is but temporary. We do not mourn as those without hope, for we know that in Christ, we shall see Brother Jerry again.
Join us in prayer for Mrs. Savelle, Jerriann, Terri, and the entire family. Together we celebrate his life, remembering and honoring the legacy of character, faith, and integrity that Dr. Jerry Savelle so gracefully built. His teachings, love, and example have left an indelible mark on countless hearts, all of which are encouraged by his ministry.
“Well done, good and faithful servant… Enter into the joy of your lord.” Matthew 25:21
We will announce the details of Dr. Savelle’s celebration of life as they are confirmed over the next week. Please look for updates, which will be made public at the appropriate time.
