This photo captured one of the most precious unforgettable moments of my life. It was August 23, 2020 during our Grand Opening celebration of Cornerstones Church's new facility at 7144 Atlantic Blvd in Jacksonville, Florida.  Dr Robert "Papa" Doorn has just finished speaking. As he starts to sit down, Dr James Maloney steps up to escort him to his seat. Captured in this moment was honor, respect, love, joy and many other  emotions.  Here, at a special time for me, are two of the most important people in my life. Both men are Apostles who have impacted the world with the Gospel message. Both have influenced, encouraged, activated, and sponsored ministers around the globe their entire adult lives.  Both were my close friends, confidants, advisors to whom I submitted for many, many years. James Maloney (almost 65) went to be with the Lord shortly before Christmas of 2022,  just weeks after this event.  Papa Doorn made his transition last Saturday, January 28, 2023 at 93 years of age. Little did we expect them to go in that order. I am so glad for this memory! That's me in the background enjoying the moment.  One day I will catch up to them in Heaven. What fun they must be having!
