"Well done thy good and faithful servant"... I have not seen Auxillary Bishop Butler in over 30 years, but I was deeply saddened to hear of his passing. I can say that he was responsible for my salvation! He is responsible for all that I learned and continue to carry with me. My middle son also says "Elder Butler was my first Pastor in my life" and he too remembers his teachings. Thank you so much, Bishop.My sincere condolences to his family.
