A place that focused on healing broken people in our community. Throughout her life she ministered to countless individuals, standing with them in prayer, guidance and support in their greatest moments of need.

I still can't believe you aren't here anymore. I miss you every day & think of you every day. You were an outstanding pastor & your obedience to the Lord helped change my life. You were the best Christian example I've ever seen. And you preached the Gospel and told about Jesus Christ without any limits. There will never be another pastor like you. I sure love you. & I'll be glad to see you in heaven again one day. I know you are enjoying your time with Jesus. Thank you for everything BB. You saved so many souls.

I was lead to Mrs Bobbie by the Holy Spirit during a very turbulent period in my life. I had never encountered someone like her before! Had never witnessed the power of the Holy Spirit move through someone like that before to touch and help people in need! It changed my life forever! I loved her dearly!

Larry, family and close friends, we are so sorry for your loss. Bobbi was such an anointed child of God. She has touched so many lives including mine. She fought the God fight and the Angels welcomed her home into the arms of Jesus. She is now healed and made whole. Those that are left behind continue your mission as she would want you to go forth and to the nations to reach more people for Christ. You will see her again soon. Our love and prayers are with each of you. Peace, comfort and blessings. God bless, Sherry and Scotty Henderson

I want to send my condolences to the family. I will never forget Mrs. Bobbie and the times she spent with me knowing Jesus in a personal way. She taught me how to use my Bible and make it mine. Today, my Bible is marked in every color. She laid hands on me many times and spoke Gods word over me that I still use today. I will be praying for you all. Thank you for sharing her with me.

I have never in my life encountered a person who more exemplifies the pure love of God than Bobbie Deen. The the hope that she has instilled to the hopeless, the countless tears that she has dried of those in need, and the strength that she has lived will echo through eternity. To Shannon, Scott, and all of the family please know that our hearts are broken with you and that our prayers for you will not end.
With much love,
Tammy, Jason, Colby, Cassidy, and Caleb
