As I prepare this memorial for my dear friend, pastor and mentor I can't help but think of all the past memories we have had together ministering in different churches together...He was not only a great friend, but he was a Spiritual Father, My Mentor that showed me the life of Jesus.
He was a great man of God that lived what he preach, He was a great husband to his wife Angia, and a great father to his children Steven, Pam, and Paul Gay. He was a great grandfather and a great friend to many.
Even though he will be sadly missed we all know that he has long desired to go and meet his heavenly Father...He loved the Lord beyond words can express....He walk the walk, he talk the talk and he lived his life for the Lord....He started preaching the word of God at the age of 12 and Evangelized for 62 years raising his family...
Pastor James founded Gospel Revelations Ministries at a early age which I am proud to say he ordained me in the 1980's, at a little church in Marion Indiana. He one of the best men of God that I have ever met in my times of the ministry and I will forever miss him, I will miss his funny jokes, his life stories that I know many of us have heard time and time again.....There isn't another Friend, or Pastor that will ever take the place of my dear Friend....Pastor James I love you buddy and I will forever meet you again some day....I know you are shouting on the hills of glory for you have run your race and now you have finished your corse...R.I.H. my dear friend until we meet again....Love you, Your right hand Helper Evangelist Doris Westerman.
