In memory of.....


In memory of Ralph Cox, Don McCalpine, David Martin and other missionaries that have gone before us. They are most blessed as they are 'in the habitations of [God's] glory and dominion.'

Stella Cox quoted this in her letter recently, "It cheers us up to think of things of heaven, because all that we desire await us.” R.A. Torrey


“Bring us, O Lord God, at our last awakening into the house and gate of heaven, to enter into that gate and dwell in that house, where there shall be no darkness nor dazzling, but one equal light; no noise nor silence, but one equal music; no fears nor hopes, but one equal possession; no ends nor beginnings, but one equal eternity; in the habitations of your glory and dominion, world without end.” John Donne, 1572-1631
