Place me like a seal over your heart, like a seal on your arm; for love is as strong as death, its jealousy unyielding as the grave. It burns like blazing fire, like a mighty flame. Many waters cannot quench love; rivers cannot sweep it away. If one were to give all the wealth of one’s house for love, it would be utterly scorned.

Song of Songs 8:6-7

to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength
and honor and glory and praise!”

but whose delight is in the law of the Lord,
    and who meditates on his law day and night.
That person is like a tree planted by streams of water,
    which yields its fruit in season
and whose leaf does not wither—
    whatever they do prospers.

Psalm 1:2-3

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved Pastor Noel Shanko. Pastor Shanko fell asleep in Jesus on Tuesday, August 4, 2026.

For more than 40 years, Pastor Shanko faithfully served the Lord in the Potomac, Carolina, and Florida Conferences. Throughout his ministry, he served in many roles, including pastor, Ministerial Director, and Assistant to the President. No matter the title, his calling remained the same—to faithfully shepherd God’s people and lead others into a deeper relationship with Jesus.

Pastor Shanko‘s life was a testimony of humble service, unwavering faith, and a genuine love for people. He had a remarkable way of encouraging those around him, caring deeply for fellow workers and church members alike, and reminding us that our greatest work is preparing people for the soon return of Jesus. While only eternity will reveal the full impact of his ministry, we know that countless lives were touched because he answered God’s call with faithfulness.

Today, we mourn the loss of a faithful pastor, trusted colleague, and dear friend. Our hearts ache alongside his family and all who had the privilege of knowing him. Yet we grieve with hope, because our confidence rests not in this life, but in the promise of the resurrection.

1 Thessalonians 4:16-18

I invite our Florida Conference family to join me in praying for Pastor Shanko‘s loved ones during this difficult season. May the Lord surround them with His peace, sustain them with His grace, and comfort them with the assurance that this separation is only temporary.

As we remember Pastor Shanko, may we honor his legacy by continuing the mission that defined his life: loving people, serving faithfully, and pointing others to Jesus until that glorious day when our faith becomes sight.
