So comforting to know that we are not saying goodbye to our beloved Pastor Sof Gemoto. Instead we are saying goodnight because one morning we shall wake up with our Lord & Savior, Jesus Christ--and all those saints who have gone before us! Pastor Gemoto will be among them to welcome us!, What blessed hope we have in Jesus! We love you much, Pastor. Clarito & I shall miss you dearly--but it is not goodbye, but goodnight. See you in the morning!
