My heart is truly broken, at the beginning of this year the Lord put it on my heart to try to get in touch with Pastor Copeland after we lost contact years ago. Unfortunately I was never able to get in contact with her. Pastor Copeland was my Pastor at Mizpah Lutheran Church in St.Louis,MO. She was unlike anyone I ever met. She had a presence that couldn't be put into words. She spoke so eloquently and I always loved her sermons but what I remember most was her firm but loving words of wisdom. Pastor Copeland was a rare gem and she will always have a special place in my heart. My condolences to her family. May the Lord comfort you.
