I am forever grateful to GOD for allowing me the privilege of working side by side with Pastor Carl for six years. I was a brand new Christian when he asked me if I would like to be his secretary. I could not believe that he would ask me to join him in this assignment. He had Faith in me to be able to take on this ministry. As time passed with each day I grew to see this man of Faith in action. My days were filled with blessings. His daily witness and teaching discipled me by offering a "front row seat" into becoming a true follower of Jesus.
He shared his wonderful family with me while Rudy worked in Europe.
They became my second family giving me many fulfilled and unforgettable moments.
You will be missed, get my typewriter ready.....

I answered an alter call with uncontrollable tears and have been joyously serving the Lord since.
My main memory is that because of Carl's preaching and teaching GOD has shown me in many ways how he was in my life from birth."I will never leave nor forsake you" Rudy

To the Johnson Family. My sincere condolences. Many people's lives have been changed for time and eternity because of Pastor Carl's devotion and obedience to God's calling on him. I praise the LORD for this faithful man of God. He was the epitome of a good and faithful servant. Pastor had a profound influence on my life. A model of how to be dedicated to God, the Word of God and Family. I will love Pastor Carl for my whole life. May we all dance with joy in the presence of the Lord in Paradise when we see Pastor Carl again. Praise God for a life well lived. Hallelujah.
