I have such fond and vivid memories of Pastor James. As a kid, they (Pastor James as I knew him back then, Ms. Mary, Ms. Brenda-my godmother, and Ms. Lucinda) connected with my parents and invested so much into my childhood and upbringing that no words could begin to express the gratitude I have for their unconditional love, time, effort, and sacrifices. I cannot claim to be who I am today without so much gratitude and accrediting them for the seeds that they sowed in me. So much unconditional love and sacrifices were made that positively affected so many lives. Pastor James' legacy will forever be ingrained in those that he led. My condolences go out to the family and congregation of Pastor James and I cannot fathom the raw emotions of the loss; despite heaven's gain. I can imagine him now, dancing on those gold streets with his queen (Mrs. Mary James) entering into a new life - not earthly, but much more spectacular! "His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!"
