Not sure what to say?

I loved the teaching of Pastor McHatton. How can I purchase his book The cross the crook and the crown?

In the 1960's ( 61 - 65 at least ) Gospel Echoes church was located on the northwest corner of 26th Ave and Montebello Ave immediately east of Montebello Elementary School. I recall weekly occurences of a different person collapsing onto the floor and speaking in tongues.

I still think about this man frequently.And GraceLifeFelliwship ( in the ElCid Castle)He put a value on my life and soul that I didn't believe existed at the time.Through the Love of God,he revealed the reality of the authority and POWER of the Spirit and the Word in a way that it completely transformed my life, and enabled me to bring that to others in similar dire situations..I'm 65 now.And to this man- I am so very very grateful.

My family moved to Phoenix in 1952, when I was about 7 years old. I remember going to Pastor McHatton's church in the early 50s. I think it was in the Ladies Club on Northern and near 19th or 27th Ave or that area, maybe on Orangewood. Then later at Camelback? I am not sure. I know that during Phoenix Jr. college I would listen to his teaching on the radio. Specifically how he spent a long time on Psalm 23. He was definitely a deep teacher! I still think of him and had to look him...

My love to Glenda, Jared, Jim, Jeff and Jon. So many fond memories will never be erased.

Rest in peace, Dr. McHatton. Your life has been a blessing to many. The Christian Community is enriched in so many ways by the countless contributions you made.

My love and prayers to the McHatton family. I attended Gospel Echoes in the late 70's. We were so impacted by the worship, the powerful teachings, and the move of the Holy Spirit. Pastor's teachings are treasures.
My sincerest gratefulness for touching my life.

Pastor McHatton was my pastor for many, many years. His teachings continue to influence me to this day. His family are in my prayers. There is no doubt in my mind that Pastor McHatton had many people in Heaven waiting anxiously to meet him. His message of salvation reached the whole world. God bless you Pastor McHatton and I will see you again!

We so appreciated the ministry of Dr. McHatton in our lives. We view the years we had at Gospel Echoes and the things we learned from him as a wonderful time of growth. His reward in heaven is great! Our prayers are with you as you bid farewell to your husband and father. So glad we will see each other in eternity.

Much love,
