Welcome, Brad & Rachel Raburn!
Sunday, August 22nd, 2010After much prayer and discussion, we are excited to announce the hiring of Brad Raburn as the 2010-11 Buffs for Christ intern. Brad is married to Rachel, who works in Amarillo as an accountant for Brown, Graham & Co. Brad attended Lubbock Christian University and Grand Canyon University where he studied youth ministry and he served as a youth minister for the Mesa Church of Christ in Mesa, Arizona, until 2008. The Raburns moved to Canyon nearly two years ago to work with the High Plains Children’s Home. Since Rachel accepted her current position, Brad has served as a writer and photographer for the Canyon News. Longing to sharpen himself for future ministry, Brad decided to begin a MA in Counseling at WTAMU this fall.
May we give a joyful welcome to Brad and Rachel! Let us pray that God uses them to touch the hearts and lives of students at WTAMU for His glory!
