Pastor Wants Wife’s Killer To Know Jesus
Murder victim Jilian Kelley, a mother of four, was married to Pastor Heath Kelley. When Jilian was killed last spring, the pastor and his family were preparing to move from Hugoton First Christian Church in Hugoton, Kansas, to Willow Christian Church in Indianola, Nebraska. After the murders, both congregations requested prayers for the surviving family members.
Last month, after conservative commentator Charlie Kirk was murdered, Pastor Kelley posted, “As you pray for Charlie Kirk’s family don’t forget to pray for the shooter. Pray that God will soften his heart. Pray that God will send someone to share the gospel of Jesus with him. Pray that the Holy Spirit will convict him. Pray that Jesus will save him.”
He continued:
Remember this is a spiritual battle of good vs evil. I believe it would be a great testimony for the great love, forgiveness, grace and mercy of God if people like Charlie’s killer, Jilian’s killer if they had an encounter with Jesus that changed their lives! Evil would not win! Satan would lose again! God would once again be victorious! I believe that Charlie and Jilian would agree and want them to come to Jesus!
