James Wright

November 23, 1977 — February 9, 2021

On Tuesday, February 9, 2021, James Wright, loving husband and father, went to be with the Lord at the age of 43. 

James was born on November 23, 1977 in Manhattan, KS, to Larry and Jeanette (Kehler) Wright. He graduated from Manhattan Christian College in 2001 and received his Masters Degree from Johnson University in 2020.  On August 5, 2000, he married his bride Robyn (Ward) Wright in Syracuse, Kansas.  They have five children: Titus, Tyson, Tatum, Taryn, and Taigh.

James loved the outdoors and was always awed by a beautiful sunrise. He loved to talk about Scripture, was the loudest to sing during worship, and always said that there was nothing else he could imagine doing other than full-time ministry.  He was an avid fan of the Kansas City Royals and the Kansas City Chiefs and was always willing to have a cup of strong coffee with you. 

James served in ministry for a total of 21 years and touched many lives along the way.  Most recently he served as the Senior Pastor of Osage Hills Christian Church.

He is survived by his bride Robyn, his five children, his parents Larry & Jeanette, his brother John & wife Sandra, his sister Rebekah & husband Nathan, his youngest sister Rachel and several aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, and nephews.  A Celebration of Life service will be held on Saturday, March 6th at Osage Hills Christian Church (4500 W. Edison in Tulsa, OK) at 4 o'clock p.m. 

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Lifeline Children's Services at 100 Missionary Ridge Birmingham, AL 35242 in memory of James Wright.
