Darby Church Welcomes Newest Member

February 05, 2018

Dec. 30, 2017, was a beautiful day for the Darby and Hamilton churches of Montana as they shared in the joy of the baptism of Darby’s newest member, Nicholas Jahnke.

Jahnke has been going to the Darby Church in which his wife, Melissa, and mother-in-law, Glenda Byrne, grew up and into which his father-in-law, Mike Byrne, was baptized. Jahnke is a wonderful addition to the Darby family and is already a special part of his church by helping his wife with church treasurer duties.

Jahnke has accepted the role as one of the church deacons as well. He also sits on the Blodgett View Christian School’s school board and is director for the school’s home and school program. He was baptized by Bill Whitney, Darby Church pastor.

We cannot wait for what else God has in store for him.
