    I love you Bro. Engibous … I often called Him the silent Minister … He always reminded me of who I am in Christ … I will never forget His love and passion, but most of all … the determination to win souls to God’s kingdom. You were a father, brother, a man of God to so many of us. Thank you for loving me and nurturing me and teaching me and reminding me of who I am in Christ Jesus – our Lord – our God …. until we meet again … I love you!

    Mindy, Tiffany, Matt and Family. We want to extend our deepest condolences. John had such a loving heart and always was a joy to be around at church. He always made something heavy seem light as he had a lot of laughter to lift your spirits. We appreciate everything he did for us when we were new in the Lord. He was a man of Godly wisdom that always resonates in us. He will be deeply missed.
