We are thankful for the life and ministries of Ray and Jean Merchant. They leave a great legacy of strong testimony for our Lord and Savior. We know we will be able to fellowship with them for eternity. We are praying for the family! "Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: (For we walk by faith, not by sight:) We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord." (2 Corinthians 5:6-8)
