Evangelist Penny Craig

Penny was born to George and Priscilla Jones, the 5th out of 6 siblings. She grew up in the south end and west side of Columbus and enjoyed roller skating with her friends and cousins. She also had a love for the Lord like no other. After her sophomore year in high school she was baptized and filled with the Holy spirit and was on fire for Jesus ever since. She shared his love with all who came in contact with her. Penny was a beloved Tudor in schools and a Sunday school teacher for many years. The literature and lessons she shared brought many to Jesus. Everywhere God sent her she went with no hesitation, and he led her to meet and marry Elder Fred Craig. Together they were a power couple for Christ serving Young people and The love of Jesus with all. Soon after she had a baby girl whom she loved dearly. Little did she know she would lose Elder Fred and raise a child on her own but none the less she did by which she created an amazing example in being faithful and trusting God. In later years she still had that same fire in her soul sharing Gods love and proclaiming his Goodness wherever she went until our Heavenly Father called her home to be with him and say “well done my good and faithful servant “. She is deeply Missed by Her daughter Priscilla Craig (Josh Norris), Grandchildren Kaeson & Adalynn, Many nieces and nephews (Craig, Rice , Hodrick, Jones) and is preceded in death by siblings Linda Lloyd, Larry jones, Dale jones, Glen jones, Twila Herbst. The legacy she leaves with everyone is to Be love and trust God no matter the circumstances because he has us in the palm of his hand
