I will miss Bro Taylor, he was a spiritual father to me as well as others.
you were a spiritual father to me and your revelation of the scriptures will always be a inspiration and life giving
Occup til I come. Bro. Taylor was a father to many of us who came to Pinecrest as I. He was a leader,encourager and a guide. I will never ever forget the things that he taught us and how humble he always was in the presence of God. He was truly a leader and a humble servant of God who will truly be missed and was very much loved.
Pastor Wade, is dearly loved and missed by me! He was my precious pastor a true under shepherd of the Lord Jesus to me. Pastor’s life and close walk with the Lord has inspired my heart to live and love the Lord. Pastor Wade, lived to serve the Lord. Pastor was always was a phone call away. I could feel my pastor’s prayers in the spirit. He was a man of his word. If pastor said he would call, or pray he would do so. Pastor used tender loving care for the sheep the Lord entrusted to his care. I have never, ever, met such a devoted servant of the Lord, until my pastor. The Lord has caused His Face to Shine upon me; by blessing my life with such a precious man of God to guide me into the workings of our Lord. My heart aches with sadness… for heavens gain and our loss. I shall truly miss you sir! My heart and prayer’s are with you Mae, Nancy, Nathan and the rest of my pastor’s family. Pastor is dearly missed by me and forever in my heart. Pastor you are dear to my heart! Angelina
To a “Father” —-we have not many father’s like you. You rescued me when I was young, and helped guide me to Love God with all my heart, and to step into a purpose far greater than I ever dreamed of…My Pastor, Peter Wyns said something in service the other day that REALLY stuck with me… he said a Grandfather is remembered for a generation, but a Patriarch/Matriarch is remembered for generations….Wade was that kind of man, and will be missed by many. There will be much good fruit that will continue to bear seeds… I pray that that is said of me one day. Love Always, Toni
I remember when Bro Taylor shared the hidden value of picking up a piece of paper off the floor when nobody was around to see. It’s from the heart to the heart of God..He sees it all…. that was the lessson made available to me..When I think of this man I just think honorable where it is due..
Bro. “T” was adopted by my family as Grandpa and his wife, Mae, is Grandma! We love the Taylor Family dearly for they have given their lives in Kingdom service and this has changed the direction of our lives for Eternity. The corn of wheat has fallen into the ground. Now it can bring forth MUCH more fruit as this generation picks up the mantel and continues on. Our love to all of you!
There just is not enough space to write ALL that Brother Taylor was to me as a Mentor…a father in the Lord….a friend… What was learned and imparted in my life is beyond words. This I do know…as effective as you were in THIS life on THIS earth…praying for us and loving us as your own…I feel SO safe knowing…HOW MUCH MORE now. Until we meet again!!!
