Dear Pastor Childs and my Pilgrim Rest Family,
The fruits of the spirit are exemplified so profoundly in your remembrance of me. The display of christian love is more than admonished in the scripture. You shall always be a part of my life as there are so many precious memories of my spiritual life and family at Pilgrim Rest. Thank you to all involved in your gesture of kindness. Thank you for your encouragement. May Gods riches
blessings be upon Pastor Childs and congregation.
Yours in much Love,
Sister Audrey Levora Ramsey
