May God Bless you all and keep you strong. I am very grateful for the teaching and the wisdom that Rev. Mullen instilled within me. It was an honor and a privilege to accept Christ under his leadership. I clearly remember being baptize as a child by him. I thank our Heavenly Father for blessing me with that opportunity. You all have my prayers.
Revelation 14:13
Then I heard a voice from heaven say, "Write: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on." "Yes," says the Spirit, "they will rest from their labor, for their deeds will follow them."
