My first memory of Rev. Kneeppel was of a telephone call informing me "I am coming to visit, and you have work to do! What an incredible Christian woman and Pastor who's heart was sold out to Jesus and who always showed up! She taught me how to overcome many fears in ministry and pushed me to lead where I felt I could not. She also gave me the gift of a family friendship that has transcended generations. I am so thankful for how the Lord has used her life to bless and "boss" (smile) others. The scriptures speak of one who served his generation and is risen with Christ. Acts 13:35-37
35 Wherefore he saith also in another psalm, Thou shalt not suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.
36 For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption: 37 But he, whom God raised again, saw no corruption.
Rev Kneeppel served her generation. To the family. May God Bless You and Keep You and May the legacy of your Mother and grandmother, aunt, Pastor, Friend,Cousin, "Keep the Candle Burning".
