John Holland Morse's Obituary
On Saturday, June 25, 2022, John Holland Morse, 55, of Culpeper, VA went on a prayer walk and was unexpectedly taken home to meet his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ face to face.
John was born in Charleston, SC to John Cullis Morse (Jack) and Erma Holland Morse. He earned a BS in Civil Engineering from the Citadel (Class of ’89) and was an engineer/owner with ATCS.
While engineering was his occupation, John’s love for his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ was truly his passion and it was evidenced in all areas of his life. In addition to Civil Engineering, he also studied at multiple Southern Baptist seminaries including Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, where he earned a Master of Divinity, and The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, where he earned a Master of Theology. He was ordained at Fort Johnson Baptist Church in 1994. A natural teacher, John selflessly used those gifts and served wholeheartedly throughout the years in many capacities, especially in service to his beloved Stevensburg Baptist Church.
John is preceded in death by his mother, Erma Holland Morse.
John is survived by his wife of 25 years, Katherine Bradham Morse and his children: Jackson, Cooper, Sullivan, Hampton, Walker, and Caroline, all of Culpeper, VA. He is also survived by his father, Jack Morse, and his sister, Tali Morse Craven (Chuck), both of Charleston, SC.
