Bro. TStew,
I have been here from day one of this church. My late parents were
the founding pastor and wife in 1958, I have mentioned before that I
had just turned 19 yrs. old. Married 8 months later and we have never
left. Dad and Mom have fallen asleep, but we have remained. There are
three generations of my own family in this church. My husband and I,
five of our adult children and each of their original spouses. 16 of our
20 grandchildren also are here. Our oldest grandson is married so that
makes 27 of our family. Our middle daughter and her husband are pastor
and wife. They have four beautiful children also.
One son and wife and four children live in a neighboring city and attend
an apostolic church there.
What we pass on to our children is our legacy to them. What they receive
is their heritage from us. We have a goodly heritage. We received it from
our parents. Why shouldn't we inherit our parents legacy to us, their
children. Noah built an ark to the saving of his OWN house. Many others
have joined us through the years. They are part of this family. God's
family. (Don't know why I said all that!
Blessings,
