PCG Mourns Loss of Bishop Norvell

On Saturday afternoon, August 20th, the covenant family of the Pentecostal Church of God was shocked and saddened by the passing of Assistant General John K. Norvell. Bishop Norvell was working at the Southwest Texas District office and grounds when he suffered a cardiac event.

No official word has been released at this time for the cause of his death.

Bishop Norvell was a beloved leader, having served as Assistant General Bishop, World Missions Director, and Southwest Texas District Bishop. He was a favorite speaker and teacher of our church family.

While our hearts are grieved personally we feel his loss most for his wife, Marilyn, his two sons, Jason and Justin and his daughter Amy. The entire Pentecostal Church of God extends their love, prayers and support at this time.

Bishop John Norvell's memorial is Wednesday, August 24 at 2pm at Coastal Bend Family Worship Center, 700 W. Greenwood, Aransas Pass, TX. Visitation will be on Tuesday (August 23) from 6pm to 9pm at Charles Marshall Funeral Home.. The nearest airport is Corpus Christi. The church has a mapquest for directions on their website www.cbfwc.com.
