A Tribute to Dr. Dan & Shelley Berry

Dr. Dan & Shelley Berry are precious servants of God who have patiently endured substantial hardships following their automobile accident 2½ years ago. On Friday, March 5, Shelley passed on to her eternal rest. God has graciously called Shelley to the eternal joy of heaven and the resurrection hope of a perfectly restored body. Glory to God!

Dan & Shelley have been faithful spiritual leaders and their nearly 30 year marriage was a true ministry partnership. Shelley’s witness in life and death has touch thousands for God’s glory.

They have been true friends and pastors to both Patti & I.  We are deeply touched by Dan’s loss.  These pictures were taken on Nov. 30, 2008 shortly after her recovery from a long coma.  Shelley was so happy that day, we cherish the memory!

 …together with Christ we are heirs of God’s glory.

But if we are to share his glory, we must also share his suffering.

Yet what we suffer now is nothing compared to the glory

he will reveal to us later. – Romans 8:17-18 NLT.
