Ed and Bonnie are wonderful people.



My dad held meetings for him years ago when he was pastoring in Ohio. In fact Ed has said that my dad's ministry had a big impact on him as far as Israel is concerned.

So, does that mean that you have ties to the Youngstown area??? That would be too strange! Helena & I lived in New Castle PA at the time Ed was pastoring in what was technically Niles, at Pleasant Valley. So where and what did your dad do? And, if you don't mind sharing, what's his name??

[happysandyh]

My dad has been an Evangelist for over 50 years.



His name is David A. Lewis <IMG content="http://www.davidallenlewis.com/DaLewis5.jpg">





I remember holding meetings in Youngstown when I was a teenager at an Assemblies of God church. I believe the pastor's name was Rev. Charles Mooney. We did alot of meetings in Ohio through the years.

Hmmmmm. And didn't he end up in or near Springfield, Missouri??? Same David Lewis? And maybe a son who more or less picked up where David was as he retired??



How'm I doing??

[happysandyh]

yes, he ended up in Springfield, MO. But, no he doesn't have a son... it's just me and my sister. My husband and I did work with my parents for several years before we moved to Israel.

Interesting!



Do you know a Richard Padfield from Springfield? Your dad married him to Caroline in like 1997. I spoke to him several times during that time frame. It was early in our time here in KC.



Small world...getting smaller all the time.

Yes, I know Richard and Caroline. It's been some time since I've seen them. We were living in Springfield at that time and in fact my husband was running my dad's ministry for him. It's very likely that you spoke with him if you called the office. Small world indeed !
