By James McAfee/The Knox County News-Courier—
MUNDAY—Leroy Torres presented his first sermon Sunday morning in his new role as the minister of the Munday Church of Christ.
Torres and wife Carline moved from Ohio where they had served as house parents for the Midwestern Children’s Home in Pleasant Plains, a facility for troubled teenage girls.
“I’m looking forward to working with the church here,” he said.
Torres said that he plans to be actively involved in the community, too. “I’m going to be friends with everyone in town. They may not know it because they haven’t met me yet. I’m always ministering. It’s my calling.”
Torres grew up in Fresno, Calif., moving to Corpus Christi in 1987 where he met and married Carline.
He graduated from the Sunset International Bible Institute in Lubbock in 1989, and his first ministerial position was at the Central Church of Christ in Victoria. His last church assignment was at the Galesburg, Ill. Church of Christ from 2000 until 2016.
