40 years of faithfulness

These wonderful folks are Franklin and Paula Kilpatrick, missionaries here in Zambia for 40 years. Over Thanksgiving they celebrated their retirement from imb....40 years of faithfulness to the Lord. What an example to us of committment!!! They are such Godly people! The quilt on the bottom was signed by everyone in the Zambian Baptist Mission. We love you and will miss you Franklin and Paula! We are praying for what God has ahead for you!!
