Dr. David Shenk Passes On

Today we reflect on the life of David W. Shenk, who went home to be with his Lord and Savior on Tuesday, January 31, 2023. We grieve the loss of David’s presence here on earth but rejoice that he has been received by his heavenly Father. In his autobiography, “A Gentle Boldness,” David concluded by reflecting on Paul’s words in 2 Corinthians 5:20. David wrote that he and his wife Grace “were seeking to celebrate the peace of Jesus … Jesus commissions us to be his ambassadors of peace.” Indeed, that is what David has been: an ambassador of Christ’s peace! A memorial service will be held on Saturday, February 18, at 10:30 a.m. at Mellinger Mennonite Church, Lancaster, Pa. Join with us in praying for David’s wife, Grace, their children, and grandchildren as they mourn their loss.
