THANKFUL FOR ROLE MODELS

This weekend we will be honoring the life and ministry of Martha Jackson, who has been faithfully serving the Lord and people for all of her life. Her impact and influence will keep on going because of her love for children and missions.

What a role model to the lives of hundreds or thousands of children when she started Dayspring over 42 years ago, and it is still touching and impacting children today. Dayspring is one of the largest ministries of our church. The other part that you may not know is that Martha has given and built churches in Bulgaria and continues to do so today. Martha has a great heart for children and missions. That is really the heartbeat of God!

I am thankful for her role model and pray that God will raise up many more Martha's in our church body!

Thank you Martha!

  1. Yes Pastor and she is so interesting to talk to. When my eldest son was going to Dayspring I had the privlige to talk to Mrs. Jackson and she told me of her adventures when she was young and shared pictures of her vacation in Israel. She is an awesome role model. She didn't set out to be such a great lady,she just was herself.
