I met Joyce and her twin Joan through my good friend Sherry. I looked up to and respected her way back then. She was saved and filled with the Holy Ghost. Although Sherry and I were not saved during that time, she always spoke to me with love and kindness. Pastor Joyce was an awesome woman of God who walked with integrity. I extend my condolences to the McBride and Goings families. Rest well, Pastor Joyce. You fought a great fight.
My sincere condolences and prayers to all who are affected by this transition. God is the only one that I know who can make a heart, break a heart and put a heart back together again. He is a heart mender! Pastor Joyce and her Sister Joan were always sweetly saved. Growing up in the United Church Of God those two were always faithful and present at many gatherings. I first saw those ladies at a United Church Of God, union at Emmanuel UCOG in Sanford, Nc March of 1983. Great people who lived Holy.
Deepest condolences. I'm praying for family and friends ❤️🙏. GOD is giving strength and Comfort. Be encouraged.
We are so sorry to hear about your loss. Keep the faith and hold on to God's unchanging hand. Rev. Dr Eva S Smiling & 1st Gentleman L. C Smiling & Family .
My thoughts and prayers are with you as you navigate the absence of your loved one. May the love of friends and the fond memories that you have of your loved one give you strength, peace, and comfort for today and the days ahead. Pastor Goings may not be here physically, her spirit is always present. May she rest in peace, to absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. Give your cares to the Lord. He is our refuge.
I pray that you will find comfort that "only" the LORD can give in reading and meditating on Psalm 23. Rev.Katie Stackhouse McCallum M.Div.
