And now the prize awaits me-the Crown of Righteousness, which the LORD, the Righteous Judge, will give me on the day of His return. And the prize is not just for me but for all who eagerly look forward to His appearing.”
2nd Tim. 4:7-8 NLT

June 7, 2019 at 5:37 pm“Come ye disconsolate where he languish. Come to the mercy seat fervently kneel. Here bring your wounded heart. Here tell your anguish, that earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal.”
It will take the healing of heaven to bring the ” grace and peace” that Pastor Clarence often spoke over us during this time of sorrow and celebration.
May the strength and comfort of the Lord cover the family now and in the days to come.

January 26, 2020 at 2:44 amDearest Sis. First Lady Sharon McPherson, family, and loved ones,
Please know you have my heartfelt prayers, and condolences which are extended to you now. I am a member of Mt. Nebo Missionary Baptist Church, and a prior member of Christ Temple (as a youth) both of Omaha NE. What precious and loving memories flood my soul as I recount Pastor McPherson’s Revival messages for the Neboites every October. They were all so inspirational, renewing, and a refreshing Word from the LORD. GOD used Pastor McPherson, HIS messenger made mightily.
May he Rest in Heaven, and may the GOD of all comfort rule in your hearts right now, and rest there all through your journey. Pastor McPherson will truly be missed. Your Sister in Christ Jesus, Edwyna Choice
