In past posts, I have mentioned a guy named, Carl Lindelien (Pastor Carl or “Cowboy” Carl to some). He has been a mentor of mine for many years. He is in the hospital – currently in the ICU and He needs your prayers.
Here is a link to his Caring Bridge Site if you want to know His latest condition.
Here’s a brief bio of Who Carl is and his accomplishments: He started in children’s ministry back when few churches even considered a children’s pastor as a viable ministry. He was my children’s pastor when I was a kid and took me under his wing.
He went on to produce children’s ministry music and write children’s church curriculum.
Would you please keep him in your prayers?
Hello Jamie,
No, you dont know me. I was in Carl's sunday school class as a kid as well. Wow! What an impact he made on my life! We were just watching some of the old videos from Carl's Christmas plays, when I was nine! (I am 20 now). It doesnt seem like that long ago… They sparked some memories for me, and I set out to google his name. Your blog was the first thing to come up. Thanks for posting the link to his caring bridge, hopefully I will be able to get in touch with him again. I've seen him on and off at random events over the years, but have never had a chance to really "connect". Blessings to you, and thanks again! Mind if I ask a nosey question, about how you met Carl? 🙂
