Memories of Mom: Barbara Gooch

My mom is all about sacrifices! She started off, when we were all just kids ourselves, babysitting numerous kids to provide for us. She gave us a Christian education (most of us went all the way through private school), a role model (most of the values she gave us are seen in all of our kids), and she has taught us the importance of a personal relationship with God! I have a brother who is starting a church in Colorado and another at a local church as a music minister. I am involved with my church in the music program. Myself and 2 other brothers are in a praise and worship band that travels around sharing what God has done in our lives and continues to do!!! My sisters sing together at area churches... none of this would be possible without our mom and the special gift God has given to her!! She is our gift and we will never be able to repay her for showing us the life that is more abundant... one that is with Jesus Christ our Lord!!!! - James Gooch
