  I am very grateful to have been Georgia's pastor since 1989. I am grateful for the way she welcomed my family and me when we were new to Oakland. I am grateful for the way she came early to church and always had an encouraging word before the service began. I am grateful for her courage in the face of illness. I am grateful for her faith that God will continually hold her and joyfully welcome her home. Pastor Jim Hopkins
