In Remembrance

We received word this week that Rev. Jacques Vernaud, long-time missionary to Africa, passed away while visiting in South Africa. He leaves a legacy of ministry that has impacted men, women, boys and girls for eternity. Gaylord and I had the privilege of ministering with him at his church, La Borne A/G, in the Democratic Republic of Congo in January of this year. 

Each week approximately 8000 people attend one of three services, and many others join by radio or television broadcasts. As you watch the video clip below that was taken during one of the morning services, you will hear the choir sing in French "You Deserve the Glory" as the congregants worship the Lord.  May we rejoice at the home-going of a servant of God and pray for his family and friends.
