I was the pastor who hauled off junk, and clean yards the reason for us get a chance to witness about Jesus Christ I found it can throw them off when I ask them do they know if theres God there reply was I thought that you hauled off junk, and clean yards I tell them yes I do this is the part of my ministry, and I always carry my bible with me every where I go never leave home with out. I alway drove by the Party Barn hoping I can catch someone there where I can talk to them about them about Jesus Christ.
I thought it was a bar or a dance haul, and I just wanted them to know that Jesus Christ loved them and he can change there life around, and have the Party Barn set up into a church house where others can come in and worship the Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, and I was looking for a church building at that time. Brenda LaGrone called me so happen I was heading to there place where I can talk to them about the Jesus Christ, she told me that there hot water heater went out, and they replaced it she told me it was a big one I said OK I have seen hot water heaters it just a small one, boy did I get a surprise when I got there it end up being a 120 Gallon tank I should have brought my trailer.
The first thing that Brenda saw was a bible on my dash board then Garre came out of the building I told my self hers a chance that you can led them to Jesus. Did I get a surprise both of them is a Christian, and the Party barn was used for hosting Parties, and other functions. I told both of them that I am a pastor this is part of my ministry is going around gather lost souls for his kingdom, and I told both of them a story that when Jesus left the 99 and went to find that one lost sheep, and this is part of my ministry. Garre and Brenda LaGrone came a real good friends that day before I left the Party Barn Brenda gave me 2 of Garre LaGrone Cd's where I could listen to his ministry.
Then 1year later then I meet with Stephen Scott about Vartech and Excel Telephone Service and Stephen wanted me to meet his mom and dad, I said sure thing, and told me what time Tobe there, and I got another surprise and so did there son, it was same couple that I meet at the Party Barn, and I found out that I made a great big impact on there lives the day when both of them seen my bible on my dash board in my pick up. Garre and Brenda LaGrone, and they told me about Stephen Scott's life how old he was when his dad past away, and I said wow I lost my dad when I was14 we both lost our dad at the same age I knew this is a God thing, and I ask Stephen since he did not have any brothers or sisters I would like to doped him as my brother, and we all agreed upon it, and I knew there was a reason for me to meet a good Christian People, and Garre and Brenda LaGrone.
We laugh together at my Christian jokes and the story about the Party Barn was real funny, and the song that I wrote about them, and told them how I felt, and we had a good laugh over that one, and the things that I shared with the family, and the song that I wrote about them it was very touching, and made Brenda cry. Garre and Brenda: also owned rent houses, and I was called to remove junk, and I do worked for Garre LaGrone on part time bases, one day Garre called me, and asked me if I would like to make some money by remodeling a house, I said yes right away, I got a nasty surprise when I got there the house had 6 dogs and the owner was a dentist the smell made us sick, and we had to ware mask to clean the dog mess up. I went to my truck I put on my knee pads on, and I scrap the floor, and I did some minor electric replace some plug ins, Garre, and Brenda LaGrone took good care of me by feeding me, and buying the drinks. It was funny after wards not right then Garre went down and rented a trailer mine got stolen out of my back yard, and we was tearing down the fence and throwing the boards in back of the trailer, and the wind got my board and went over the trailer right through his back window of his jeep, and the look on my face and his face, and he for gave me for doing that, and he told me 2 days before that he busted the back window out as well by mowing.
When I told Garre about this website he told me that would be great to sell all of his CD'S on my website, and he dose not know the story that I wrote about how we meet. I praise God for Garre, and Brenda LaGrone, and Stephen Scott they where there when I needed a friends the day that my wife went into hospice, and it was very touching to me and my wife, when Garre came to hospice to put on a show for me and my wife, and that was very touching, meaningful. They was there all the way, and thats when I found out that Garre went in and bought part of Cox Funeral Home, and Garre help me to make the funeral arrangements, as we was going through some songs I wanted Garre do the singing, and Garre told me he could not do that, and his wife told me why that he could not sing then I knew how close they felt to us, and as I am writing this story I' m about to cry this is very touching to me how Garre feels about me and my wife. Garre ensure me that he's going to take care of every thing for me, and he took care of every thing, and Garre and Brenda just did that.
The day that my wife past way, and Garre left couple of times I found out why he was crying, and I could not ask for better friends then I got. I called Brenda, and told her that Diane had turn for the worst she was right there but it was too late my wife past away in my arms, Garre and, Brenda, and Stephen will say this about me I never once left my wife all that time I was there 24 hours day 7 days a week it was hard fort hem to get me to leave hospice and they had to force me out of there to get some fresh air and Brenda stayed with Diane all the time that I was gone with Garre, I feel apart the day that my wife past away. Garre came up there to pick her up and took her to the funeral home. I do love Garre, and Brenda LaGrone, and I do see them a lot, and the love that I have for them it's beyond any one can imagine.
I got another friend, and A dear Brother I would like to thank for being there for me in my time of need, and he tells me all the time he's got my back is Stephen Scott, and yes some day we will be working right beside of each other, and doing things together.
