Dear Family and Friends,
I have a new favorite word: FOREVER. I seem to hear it
all the time now that I am so aware of it.
As you know, 2011 was my final year on earth with Les. But he is forever in his heavenly home with the Lord. And as you have probably already read, his last word on earth was “forever.” We were reciting Psalm 23 and with his normal voice he looked me right in the eyes and said, “FOREVER.” A few hours later, he quietly moved to his new forever home. It was five months ago on August 30.
I am not a heroine, so yes, I am lonely and often very sad. I have so many wonderful memories and I keep finding, remembering , reading, or hearing something that immediately produces my “sweet tears.” How I loved my Les and how I deeply miss him. But then I just have to think of him completely restored and that he is face to face with the Lord — and that same Lord of our lives gives me courage.
So life goes on...
"I’ve never known another man who Loved God like he did. His love for the Lord showed in his face and actions and today I can say that he instilled in my heart a profound and great love for God... I trusted him a deep personal secret here in Popayán, Colombia and I received comfort and peace from his words."
"He will be missed by thousands with whom he has shared the Gospel throughout the southern hemisphere. I feel I lost a friend, an encourager, and a brother."
"It was a privilege to have him among us as long as God allowed him; his works will continue to impact many lives."
"We regret to have lost a great teacher of the Word, a great companion in the faith, but mostly a great friend. We always admired his ability to share, how he was able to explain the most complex theological topics in a pleasant and simple-to-understand manner."
"He was a powerful instrument in the hands of our good Lord, as a model of surrender, godliness, service, a love for those who didn't know Christ and, above all, his desire that all of us pastors would be equipped to defend the Gospel under any circumstances."
One of Dr. Les Thompson’s favorite projects was putting together PowerPoint presentations to go along with his Bible teaching. He would work for hour after hour searching for the right words, pictures and illustrations that would help make the Bible lesson come alive. Les loved the Christmas season and the amazing Scripture passages telling of the birth of his Savior, and we thought you would enjoy this 5-minute lesson on the "Childhood of Jesus." We set the PowerPoint lesson to some beautiful music as the slides pass by. We hope you this wonderful slideshow of Jesus' birth.
