God, in his infinite prudence, has decided to accept Pastor Aaron Strong’s soul into his presence in glory. On Wednesday, October 12, 2022, on his way from his house to the church office, he was T-Boned by a speeding motorist who ran a red light in the middle of a downtown crossroads. To Froedtert Hospital he was taken by the EMTs. The doctors and nurses did everything they could, but they couldn’t bring him back to life.
