Not sure what to say?

I miss him. I would like DVD's of his preaching especially You can live any way you want but don't blame God.

I have known Thomas since the late 70 at the wilds camp and have always loved to hear him preach I'm sorry to hear about his passing

Praise God for this man. He was greatly used and an absolute hero for heaven. Our hearts are heavy here, but we rejoice for our home is in heaven.

Brother Tom's preaching kept me encouraged during a deployment to Iraq. My church sent me an entire series on CD and I wore those digital tracks out. Loved him. So encouraging and a humble exhorter for our Lord. Rest well sir. Your burial at the Wilds is very meaningful.

My heart is both crushed and rejoicing. I’ve heard many great preachers in my day but Tom Williams was my favorite and my mentor from afar. First heard him as a teen at The Wilds.

Our youth group went to the Wilds every summer during a week when Mr. Farrell preached. Each night the power of God swept through that huge room. I truly believe that God's breath used Mr. Farrell's body as a vessel to deliver His message. My life trajectory was entirely changed one of those nights, as I fully surrendered my body, mind and life to Jesus. Thank you to Mr. Farrell and to his family - for the sacrifices I'll never know, that you all gave, to fulfill the will of God all of these...

Dear Regina, I remember your singing with the Pantana quartet at BJU, and seeing you & Tom dating during Bible Conference time. I taught at a Christian school in Atlanta from 72-79 and attended The Wilds camp with my school in those early years. It has been a joy listening to the recorded service today, August 16th, and hearing how the Lord has used your marriage to the Glory of God. What a blessing it is knowing that your children are also now serving the Lord ! God be with you until...

Tom came to me at the Wilds many years ago and asked me if he should go into evangelism. I told him, "Yes, I believe God has His hand on you."
Tom was s true soldier of the cross of Jesus Christ and he will be greatly missed!

Thank you Tim Farrell for your dedication to Christ's ministry and your love of young people. You so influenced my sons and numerous nephews and their friends over the years, they still listen to your messages . More than one was saved thru your preaching! Heaven is brighter than ever for your presence, but you will be sorely missed by many here on earth. What a champion for Christ you were ! Can I get an AMEN !!!??!!
