Last night I walked into my home after a long day to see a new picture on my coffee table of cottage with flowers and a stone walkway leading up to an inviting threshold. This picture was one that Dad Mac brought me during a brief stay in the hospital years ago. in a matter of seconds it took me on a journey of love, hope, and inspiration. It reminded me of the supernatural peace that I can have no matter the circumstances. Dad had a way of making all situations better.... when Dad caught your attention it was as though he brought you all the love God has for you at one time. Thanks Dad for showing me Gods love and peace overshadows all situations.

My heart felt love toward the McIntosh family, for over 20 years of connection, Dad McIntosh has been a rock. He knew how much I loved preaching on 'wave walkers", after one service he went into the foyer of the men's restroom and took a painting of Jesus walking on the water and gave it to me. Ha, Bishop just grinned.

Dad McIntosh would often greet me as I entered the church with a 'Hello' and a smack on the cheek. His sweet spirit, encouragement and words of wisdom were a refreshing welcome each time I'd see him. He will be greatly missed.

Dad Mac was always taking the time to sit and have lunch in my office when I was working at the church. He would always bring in the sunshine everyday he came and every time, he ALWAYS inspired me with his special i-pad scripted, thought provoking questions. I love you dad...

I remember working with Dad at Higher Dimensions 20 something years ago. He was a man in my life at that time when I didn't have one. We would sometimes talk for hours. He would invite me over to he and moms house for a peanut butter, banana and honey sandwich. I was like "this looks awful" but after taken a couple bites dad and I would have it frequently for lunch. I will miss you

Dad Mac was one of my favorite people. He gave the best hugs and was always so encouraging to me. I met Dad and Mom Mac over 25 years ago and spend many days talking with and getting advice from each of them. The McIntosh family as a whole had a major impact on my life and I am very grateful to have had such a wonderful experience! Rest now Dad in the arms of the Father be at Peace.

Some people we meet, we liked to forget. Others we barely remember, but there are people you meet and you know in that moment God just wanted to remind you of how much your are loved. My encounter and experience Dad McIntosh and Shirley was just that, God reminding me how important and loved I am. I will miss Dad McIntosh dearly. Greenwood will always be dear to my heart, I miss you guys and I am praying that God's grace and peace would flood your life in this time of loss.

Love ya, LaDonna K. (Moore) Sanders- Albany, NY

Bishop and Pastor Debbie, Laurent and I want you to know how much we love you, and that our prayers are with you. I will always remember Dad Mac s beautiful smile. When my son was a newborn he would come over and tell me how handsome his hats were. He would always say that he had to keep up with his sense of style. His presence will be truly missed. We love you Transformation Church!!!!

There is no honor greater than that of a life well lived, which leaves a legacy for all to relive each time they remember him. Dad McIntosh was such a blessing, always welcoming with a big smile and loving embrace. I thank God that I had the opportunity to have him in my live, even for such a brief moment. My prayers and Love, are with each of the family members, during this season of Dad's transition from mortal to immortality. We look forward to seeing him one day in God's presence, for the ultimate home coming celebration with our Lord and King. May God the Father bless and keep each of you. 
 
Much Love,

Mardina Blackshire
