IT'S AN HONOR TO SPOKE TODAY AS

WE BRING MY FRIEND, MY BISHOP,

MY MENTOUR AS WE BRING HIM TO

BURIAL.

THE SPOKER WAS STAFFORD AND HE

WAS FROM BALTIMORE.

AT THE CONGRESS HE SAID JOE

GOSSMAN IS A MAN OF EURICUST.

HE BELIEVED THE WORDS OF JESUS

WITH HIS WHOLE BEING.

THE BRED BREAD IS FOR FOR THE

LIFE OF THE WORD.

TO KNOW WE TODAY AS WELL AS OUR

ANCESTERS IN THE PAST WE ARE

INVITED TO MEET THE LORD

EVERYDAY.

AT THE ALTER BISHOP GOSSMAN

FOUND STREIGHT AND LOVE.

HE HAD THE ABILITY TO PREACH

THE GOSPEL IN TRUTH AND

STREIGHT.

BISHOP GOSSMAN BROUGHT TO THE

ALTER HIS OWN HOPES AND DREAMS.

HIS DISAPPOINTMENTS AND

FRUSTRATION KNOWING THE LORD

WHO FED HIM HIS BRED WOULD WALK

WITH HIM THROUGH THE DAY . HE

WAS A GENTAL SERVIENT.

HE LISTENED WITH CARE.

NOT JUDGING THE PERSON BUT

JUDGING THE SIN.

HE DIDN'T WAIFER FROM THE TRUTH

EVEN EXCEPTING ALL PERSONS INTO

HIS CARRYING ARMS.

HE DIDN'T FIND IT EASY TO BE

OUT IN FRONT.

ACTUALLY, YOU USUALLY FOUND HIM

IN THE BACK OF THE ROOM.

HE DIDN'T WANT THE LIME

LIGHTENER THE -- LIGHT NOR THE

ATTENTION THAT CAME TO HIM.

THEY ARE ABLE TO WATCH OVER THE

FLOCK, TO KEEP WATCH IN YOUR

HOPE.

THAT THEY HAVE SUN AND LIGHT IN

THERE HEART.

THAT WAS BISHOP GOSSMAN.

HE HAD WORDS PRINTED ON HIS

INNOVARATION IN 1968.

I QUOTE WHAT I AM FOR YOU

TERRIFIES ME.

WHAT I AM WITH YOU CONSOLES ME.

FOR YOU I AM A BISHOP WITH YOU

I AM A CHRIS -- CHRISTIAN.

THE FIRST IS AN EXCEPT ANSWER

-- EXCEPTANCE THE SECOND

DANGER.

THAT I AM TO BE PLACED OVER YOU

I SHALL AS THE LORD HIMSELF

COMMANDED BE MORE COMPLETELY

YOUR SERVIENT.

THOSE ARE THE WORDS OF AGUSTAN.

BISHOP GOSSMAN WAS STRONG AND

DETERMINED.

EVEN WHEN MANY OF THE FAITHFUL

CONDEMNED HIM FOR PROTECTING

THE TEXTILE WORKERS AND FARM

WORKERS.

HE WENT FORWARD KNOWING THE

LOVE OF JESUS WEDNESDAY --

WOULD STRIGHTEN HIM.

HES WAS NOT -- HE'S WAS NOT AN

ANGRY PRESENTATION BUT A

PRESENTATION OF WHAT WAS RIGHT.

HE WROTE THE ONE MIND AND ONE

HEART.

NOT ONLY FARM WORKERS AND

TEXTILE WORKERS HAD TO BE

PROTECTED BUT ALL WORKERS HAD

TO BE TREATED WITH LOVE AND

RESPECT AND WELFARE PROTECTED.

HIS PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY HUNG HIS

PRIEST.

HE ALWAYS HAD A CAMERA TAKING

I'M NOT SURE IF HE HAD FILM IN

THE CAMERA.

EVERYONE WOULD SMILE AND LET

THE BISHOP TAKE THAT PICTURE

AND WENT AWAY HAPPY HOPING WE

MIGHT ONE DAY SEE THESE.
