Gus Sideris

Where do you begin to describe someone like “Gus” Sideris? He recently was called home by his Lord and Savior on August 4th and leaves a big gap in our community. Gus was a fixture at Warsaw Evangelical Presbyterian Church and spent time listening, helping and praying with those who are hurting. He led many Bible studies and pointed people to Jesus as the Way, the Truth and the Life. He always greeted someone with a story, a smile and brought joy into any situation. There were times when I was down and I would have some reason to go to WEPC just to see him. There was something infectious about him. I would kiddingly say it was because he was Greek and he would just laugh. The reality is that he had the comfort of the Holy Spirit that came from deep within. In reading his obituary he had many accomplishments. He served his nation in the U.S. Navy when called. He volunteered on many occasions and was a successful businessman. But his most important accomplishment is that he loved. There is a great celebration in Heaven right now! Thanks, Gus, for being a great example of a follower of Jesus. “Well done, good and faithful servant!”
