Rev. Jay Anderson is one of the last great ministers from the old Kansas West Conference of The United Methodist Church He was a Wesley scholar who preached the gospel in season and out. Jay was one of only a couple known as our family pastor, and he became my mentor when I was a young clergyman Jay founded our clergy accountability group amoung southwestern Kansas pastor, the best I've been part of. And upon his retirement I had the unexpected blessing og being pastor to Jay and Lois. Jay's balanced faith, his unabashed love of Jesus, and his vision for Christ-centered missions made Jay the model Methodist to emulate. May the glorified Jay now enter his grace-given rest. And may we agree with him, The best is, God is with us.
