On Saturday, May 7 we had a public memorial service for Dad at the church he founded more than 45 years ago. This was a special time for the people from the church Dad founded to share their memories of Dad as their pastor and friend.
The service ended with an excerpt from this sermon of Dad's, and the congregation joining in singing Never Give Up by Fanny Crosby (led by Dad in the recording). Hearing his voice out of the church speakers made it feel like he was there.
Dad will be missed, but we know that while he is not in his body, he lives on eternally in heaven. His race is complete. His suffering has ended. He has entered into God's splendor.
