Wayne Carter gained his reward

Brother Carter our former Florida Pastor has left this earth. Wayne organized and pastored the Eustis Florida 'Praise Cathedral' for 40 years.
He will be missed. He was the last pastor we had that was older than we are. Remember his wife and family in prayer...

Wayne's Funeral was standing room only in the Foyer and the over flow rooms where the proceedings were televised. WE parked a 1/4th mile from the crowded lots and streets.
It sure spoke well for him and his memory. Cool

Cojak, I don't know that I knew him (although I'm sure I saw him at campmeetings

But the loss of any of us weighs increasingly heavy upon my heart. I am happy to know that they are gone on to their reward and are better than they have ever been before...but I am finding fewer and fewer folks with which to talk about old memories.

Or, if they are older folks, they don't have the same sort of memories (e.g., old Florida, Florida campmeetings, old-time Church of God, preacher's kids from back in the day--like you, Cojak, etc.).

Bro. Aaron, I did some work for Wayne on their cottage at the FL Camp ground. He did have some stories and memories....
Yes, preachers' kids definitely have some Camp Meeting Memories. A greatg time to buddy with kids who knew what it was like to live in a parsonage...

There is something refreshing about a pastor who is just a man at times. I usually do a blog and Bro. Wayne read it at times. Once I was fussing a little about getting in the shower and forgetting my wash cloth. All that was in there was that silly woven mesh thingee my wife uses, so I tried it.

Wayne called me and said, "Bro Jack if you will get Sherry in the Shower with you to explain the use of that 'thingee' you will gain a new prospective of things."

We got a great laugh out of the incident. I liked to kid him about how nice it was to have a pastor older than I.

Bro. Wayne also said to me when one of the large churches here in Florida folded due to finances, "Brother to be honest most COG pastors are great folk however some are POOR money managers."

I have found that to be true. Crying or Very sad
