52 STORIES

Each of us has a story. This year, as a church community, we’re diving deep into the story of Jesus and how He changes our lives. We’re calling it a Year of Story, and we’re sharing 52 stories from the Woodmen community. This week’s story highlights how God has used Woodmen in big ways in the lives of Kevin and Bailey Flanegin.

ELDER UPDATE

We're excited to introduce Steve Rodny as a candidate for Woodmen’s Elder Council. Please watch the video above to hear from Pastor Josh and Steve.

Steve and his wife, Patty have been married for 30 years and have four adult children. They have been involved with Woodmen since 2011 and attend the Downtown campus. They currently lead a 20s community group and host the Air Academy chapter of Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA). At Woodmen Downtown, Steve serves as an usher and Patty serves in Connect Central. Steve has worked as a Wealth Manager for Fidelity for 27 years and Patty currently serves as the director for Woodmen’s Acts Ministry. The Rodneys love spending time with their kids in the mountains skiing, biking and hiking.

As part of our Elder selection process, over the next three months we invite you to contact Steve directly if you have a concern about any area in his life which does not align with the Biblical standards for elders outlined in Titus, chapter 1 and First Timothy, chapter 3. If, after giving him an opportunity to respond, you feel that there is a concern that remains unresolved, please reach out to: pastors@woodmenvalley.org
