A Century"ian"
Today would have been the 100th birthday of Margurite "Peggy" Tresise. Sadly, she went home to be with the Lord just about two months ago. For those that don't know her, she was the wife of the founding pastor of our church, Foster Tresise. For those that do know her, she was many things:
• A brave woman who handled adversity well.
• A person of prayer and someone who was serious about God's Word.
• A visionary who, along with her husband, started the first Grace Brethren Church in Hawaii.
• A caring woman who made home people the priority.
• A wife, mother, and grandmother that was absolutely special.
• An inspirational woman of God that none of us will ever forget.
• A giver of a legacy . . .
We, who are at Waipio GBC, have inherited her legacy and have an important duty to pass it on to the generations that will follow after us. Will we be able to do in such great a fashion? Only time, and the Lord will tell.
