It is always a blessing to hear testimony of a godly person. Jackie McArthur (in picture with her husband Homer) went home to be with the Lord and left a wide trail of an example for what a Christian should be like. When she left your presence, she left something behind with you. At her funeral testimonies were heard from people in different times and places of her life. This spirit is seen in her children and grandchildren. Jackie was a volunteer secretary for BICM and her positive attitude and outlook toward situations was remarkable. It is hard to express all that she did and the energy she offered even up to her final days. One of her last wishes was not to buy flowers but to send the money to BICM. This was her pattern for thinking of others and the Lord's work in her final days before going home. This tribute is say thanks to her family for the contribution to this ministry. Speaking for many that has known Jackie for any period of time understands that she was concerned that preaching the Gospel is very important.
