I grew up with Pastor and Elsa during the wonderful years they were at Ascension Augusta Ga. Both were very special to my family.

I have so many wonderful memories of Elsa and I. We both grew up in the Lutheran Church of the Ascension and was one of my best friends all thru the years. She was one of the bridesmaids in my wedding.
