I am thankful for Mr Shea’s wonderful ministry to the world. He touched many lives – including our family. Years ago when Billy Graham was in his first pastorate and George would sing for the radio broadcast ‘Songs in the Night’ – before they were well known; my deceased husband – Bill McPhail – who was four years old = would listen to the Sunday night broadcast – in bed. He received his call to preach while listening to the program. He knew that he was very young but didn’t know the year until he read Billy Graham’s book – ‘Just As I Am’. Also his Dad – Bill McPhail – who played the sax – was part of the Rader Tabernacle Band and they accompanied George Beverly Shea when he sang at the Tabernacle or on the Youth for Christ musical cruises on Lake Michigan. It is amazing how many peoples’ lives have been touched – we are just one family! Thank you!
