One of God’s faithful servants graduated and today we want to honor him in fulfilling his dream. As a celebration of life; free coffee and God talk will be held from 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm, Saturday, July 20, at 720 S. Wheeler, in Jasper.

David Berkheimer came into this world on Oct. 17, 1936. He met the Lord at a young age and dedicated his life to serving others. He married a fellow servant of God, Melba Renehan and together they raise two daughters, Lisa and Melodi. He pastored four churches; Mission, Pt. Comfort, First Assembly of God in Rosenberg, and the Community Church in Orange. He spent two years as a missionary to Portugal starting a Bible College from 1972 to 1974. He was an example of a loving husband, father, grandfather, and great grandfather; a man of integrity and virtue.

His wife Melba died in 2004. He married Valda Simon in 2005.

Today we want to honor his dream. After retiring he sold his home and cashed in his retirement and gave it all to God to begin a Bible School.


He was passionate about his coffee. He always talked about setting up a tent and offering free cappuccinos and God talk. In honor of our dad, the most fitting sendoff is to spend the afternoon fulfilling his dream. Please have a coffee in his honor and spend some time sharing about the Lord. Thousands of lives were changed because of this man-our dad-David Berkheimer.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Supernatural School of Ministries in Jasper, an account has been set up at Community Bank in Jasper; or Camp His Way, an account has been set up at Huntington State Bank in Zavalla.
