Dear Churches, Pastors and Friends:
"Hello" to you all and "Thank you" for the many ways and times you have opened your doors to the Flanagan during the past fifty-two years of Music Evanelism. My John and I loved every minute with you all and our Lord. By now you have probably heard of the Home Going of my beloved Husband Johnny Flanagan on May 29, 2021 at 12:15 am. This has left a sorrowing in my heart and also, a joy of knowing that he is in the presents of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. He has reached the goal: "No more pain! No more suffering! No more tears! No more fears! He went to Heaven quietly in our home with neither pain nor fear in a matter of a very few minutes. Joel came in and we sorrowed and rejoiced together that there was neither pain nor fear. His heart just stopped. Praise the Lord" all worries were in vain.
Now it is time to begin again in the Lord's Ministry for me, in testimony as a "Speak-Over" or "Quotations to Music" of John's songs and to ladies ministries. If the Lord leads any of you to use me for a testimony or as a speaker at ladies retreats for your church, please call. I am available for special meetings or retreats or for any ministry your church may want. If the Lord speaks or moves about this ministry, please let me know. I am excited to serve and ready to go.
For several years, the ministry for ladies to which the Lord has called me has been entitled "The Heart of Beauty": Insight into Scriptures: Do You See What I See?" This thought will continue to be the basis for my Ladies Ministry and lessons, with a new scripture as my foundation: Col 4:17 "take heed to the ministry which thou has received in the Lord, that thou fulfill it." or if your ladies have a special subject that they wish to study then I would be happy to prepare a special lesson for them."
Thank you again for the many ways you have used Johnny and Nelda Flanagan and Flanagan Music Ministries. Now if I can be of service I would consider your call a blessing
God Bless You All in His Presence,
Nelda Flanagan
