Updated statement from Prestonwood

UPDATED STATEMENT FROM EXECUTIVE PASTOR MIKE BUSTER

“We are disturbed and saddened by the reports we have received and are praying for the Prestonwood family in this time.

We have, and will, fully cooperate with the police in their investigation. This cooperation began last night when we received notice of this matter.

We have not had record or knowledge of prior improprieties, or observed any inappropriate behavior in the 18 months Joe Barron has served on our staff as one of our ministers to married adults.

We are shocked and we are grieved. But we look to the Lord even when we don’t understand. We intend to take all necessary steps of action in this matter.

Our Pastor, Dr. Jack Graham, has been out of the country and is traveling back at this time. He will address these issues upon his return.

Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to share this statement of response with you.”
