Congratulations, Sr. M. Zachary!
Congratulations, Sr. Patricia!
Congratulations, Sr. Maria! So many fond memories dating back to Siena Hall!
Dearest (First Cousin), Sr. Mary Zachary,
What a joy to accidentally find you on this site! What a wonderful resume and accomplishment list in Ministry!
We are still in the Pastorate. My husband, Dr. David Evangelista (my married name is really relevant as David’s ministry gifts are primarily evangelism and teaching). On my desktop, this very week, we planned to try and locate you and, lo, you popped up as I searched our name, Sergeena.
You look wonderful and blessed and joyful.
So much to share. I hope you see this and I will try and reach you by phone as I miss you so much.
David and I are coming right up on our 17 year Wedding Anniversary on Sept. 12th. We have 6 daughters and sons-in-law, 19 adult grandchildren and 40 great-grandchildren and one great-great grandson. Dave is 87 and we still have our own ministry church. I will turn 68 Nov. 2nd.
We would love to find our cousin, John Caesar? Do you know where he is?
Love in the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, God, the Father, God the Holy Spirit,
Dr. David and Mrs. Linda Sergeena Evangelista,
