A very special group of people spent several years in a SS Class at Pink Ridge Baptist Church in the late ’60’s and into the early ’80’s.  This class was taught by Miss Flora Jefferies.

She devoted most of her life to reaching the kids of the community.  She singled handley had her own youth program!  I was one of those kids. 

I remember the first time that a white Ford came down a dusty road and the door opened so I could go to church.  It was my first time.  I thought it was all just a ‘bunch’ of events……I now know it was the hand of God doing he guiding. 

We will gather on August 22 and celebrate her life and pause to remember what a grand lady she was indeed!  The young people of the community will be looking for ‘Miss Flora’ when we get to Heaven.  We will have a lot of ‘Remembering’ and weeping to do because she led us to the gates of heaven.

This is a tribute to her and the ‘works that follow her’.  I look forward to clasping hands again in a land where all things are new!
