Pastor Melvin has always been gentle to our family. The girls and me use to often talk about how when they were little that he would give them peppermint candy after church on Sundays. We love him so much and we pray that you all stay strong and trust God to give you strength. The Worley family- Perry, Pamela, Brittany Tramiah, Christian and Perriona
