Malcolm Kenneth Phillips

He was the first person to welcome us to Church of the Apostles. Just an all around great guy.

Some of the events Malcolm/Misha and I were at together

Just missing and giving thanks for Malcolm who was a very special person who helped shaped and be friended our family.

So glad we got to see you when we did. I'm going to miss my big brother. Thanks for the way you always treated others. I will miss you. And cherish the many memories.

The beloved Malcolm is with his beloved. He has entered into eternity through the gate, Christ.

P. Malcolm was a Man of God, who truly exemplified Christ´s love. I´ll forever remember and cherish all the laughter, support, love, and rides he provided to me and other Mongolians in VA. His kindness, love, and generosity will never be forgotten! There aren´t enough words to express my gratitude- his presence will be remembered through the lives he touched. He was an amazing man with an beautiful legacy

Misha had a huge heart for orphans here in Ukraine and this is how we met. He took them to markets to buy new clothing and food for the money he raised in his home churches I remember persuading him to buy warmer jacket for himself, since the winters were severe in Ukraine, but he would wear only thin embroydered national shirt saying he feels warm from inside His big heart left the footprint in the lives of many. So sorry, Misha, you had to feel the pain, but I'm sure, my brother, Jesus met you with his holy embraces! Will always remember you, all the .conversations and this warm dinner in the Turkish restaurant. Feels like it was a week ago

Malcolm had a powerful positive impact on so many people's lives. Everyone he spoke with came away feeling loved and valued. We need more Malcolm's in the world today. While we miss his physical presence, I know he is still serving as a guardian angel in the next world.

A few years ago, Malcolm was in town for a few days. He contacted me and asked if he could buy me lunch and visit. He told me then that I was one of the few that made him feel like he was something! That's the first time I cried while having a meal. Rest in Peace Malcolm. You will be greatly missed my friend.

Malcolm/Misha, I will miss you even though I know you are in a better place. We did so many things to together and you introduced me to Youngs Memorial in SE, DC; met some of your family here in our area; we worked on many projects together; had my first trip to Lviv, Ukraine in Aug 2008 when we took 2 grads and 5 teen girls on a mission trip there. It was very memorable and I fell in love with Ukraine and its people as you had after going in 2005. We got to see Krakow, Poland; Berlin, Strilky, Sofiya and met her family; and other places in Lviv and the camp that we did. After that, I would go with you every Christmas (January 6th) and summer to do camps, shopping with those from Strilky and then other internauts and then so MANY other cities/villages in Ukraine. I will miss our adventures during COVID, travels, Warrenton times, and our impromptu meals together and of course, car shopping - more than once. May your family be comforted at these hard times and for all that grieving brings as with so many friends, like myself, who will miss you until we meet again. I know you're quizzing SO MANY family, history figures, etc to quench your thirst of learning history.
