After nearly five years of service at The Pursuit a local Youth Pastor passed away.

James Tucker III, born June 3, 1996, died of a heart attack Feb. 3, but Pursuit Pastor Jeff Timbs was quick to offer kind words regarding Tucker’s life.

“James was a true servant,” Timbs said. “He was always willing to serve at anything in the church. He had a heart for broken people. He would cry with those who cried, mourn with those who mourned and rejoice with those who rejoiced. James was very passionate about justice and equality.”
