Paul & Ray,
To God be ALL glory and honor.
I know that this is a time of much sadness but be comforted in knowing that GOD in HIS infinate wisdom does ALL things well. Even in a time such as this.
Our mothers (Lillie Jenkins) were very close friends and visted with each other up and down the highway in their younger years, often traveling to different places to spread the gospel of Jesus.. They are now rejoicing together again.... in heaven. The loss of a mother is great, but because God promised not to leave us comfortless, He even in such a time will restore joy .
Continue to remember all that your mother stood for and taught. Know that she is at peace with God and because of that find comfort.
May God bless you richly

To the Ray, Paul and the spiritual family of Pastor Anne Gordon,
I want you to know that we, as a church, are thinking of you and praying for you. May these words serve as a loving reminder to you of the reason why Jesus came
into this world-to be "Immanuel," which means "God with us." God is with you in your grief. He
promises in Matthew 5:4 that those who mourn will be comforted, and He has given you many wonderful friends who care and are here to help lighten your load. May His grace and strength fill your hearts and may you sense the love of so many of us who are praying for you.
In loving support,

Blessed are they that mourn, for they shall be comforted. St. Matt. 5:4 When I got the news about my friend, I dropped to the floor in my office. We have lost a powerful prayer warrior. Words can not articulate my pain. Paul & Ray, your mom was a Prov. 31 woman. But I want you to know that we are praying for you and God has the power to help you during this time. For God has given you the victory.
O death, where is thy sting? O grsve, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Corinthians 15:55-57. Pastor Dale you now must moved forward with her teachings.

There seems not to be enough words to explain this great lady of GOD.
I think about how much of a great time we had when we came to Milwaukee and Ma Gordon invited us into her home as if she had known us all of our lives.What a beautiful vessel for the lord.
Ray, Paul and St Anne Church I am so sorry for your great loss and those of us who knew her I am so sorry for our loss. But her memory will live on and on in our hearts, soul and minds.
I am so sure that God needed a serious prayer warrior so he sent for Ma Gordon and that is where she is until that day we will see her again in the rapture.
God bless and keep you. Remember to look to the hills from whence commeth your help.

She has helped so many come this way! Mama Gordon, Thank you for everything!
