It is with great sadness I announce the passing of Dr. David Blair, International Director of Youth and Discipleship. Dr. Blair passed today, Sunday, March 21, after battling severe complications related to Covid.

This devastating loss will be felt by none greater than his precious wife, Janet; their children, Bruce and Brittani; daughter-in-law, KaLea; grandson, Charlie; father, Charles; and sister, Mollie; but will reverberate within the Department of Youth and Discipleship and globally throughout the Church of God. The International Executive Committee and I are calling Church of God leaders and members to fervent prayer, asking the Holy Spirit to cover Janet and the entire family with comfort and peace, then offer thanksgiving for the impact and legacy of David’s ministry on each of us, and millions of others around the world.

We will continue to relay information concerning arrangements as it becomes available.

Dr. Timothy M. Hill

General Overseer
