GOD'S FORD ON THE GO<br />
By<br />
Luella Marsh <strong>Ford</strong><br />
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS<br />
First to the hundreds of you boys and girls I've enjoyed having in children's services from the<br />
Atlantic Coast on the East to the Pacific Coast on the West; from the Gulf of Mexico on the South<br />
and those states bordering Canada on the North — When I was a stranger and sometimes lonely<br />
many of you gladdened my heart. Thank you one and all!<br />
Some of you are grown and have your own homes and families, some of you are in Christian<br />
Colleges, some of you are now teens and some younger at home. Last, some of you are now in<br />
eternity, mostly through accidents.<br />
To the many pastors and wives and families and lay people too numerous to name individually<br />
who have been so kind through the years.<br />
To Evangelist Fred Suffield, now deceased, and his wife Kitty, who kept in touch with me through<br />
the years. He used some of my experiences as illustrations in a number of his sermons.<br />
Shirley my daughter, was saved at age ten years in one of their revival meetings near Tacoma,<br />
Washington.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y wrote words and music to many hymns — two of these that have been of special blessing<br />
to me and many others are "<strong>Go</strong>d is Still on the Throne" and "Little is Much When <strong>Go</strong>d is in it."<br />
To Mother Frater who was a mother in Israel indeed. Weekly meetings in her home every Tuesday<br />
were a tremendous source of spiritual guidance and inspiration.<br />
To Evangelist Franklin C. Allee who was my pastor when my children were very young. He and<br />
his wife had three girls about the same ages as mine. <strong>The</strong>y had told me any time I felt discouraged<br />
to feel free to come to the parsonage. Many times I would get the children and myself ready and go<br />
across the city by bus to their home. I always went home encouraged in time to get the evening meal.<br />
I hope I didn't cause Bro. and Sis. Allee too much trouble.<br />
To my friends, Jim and Frances Chandler and family where I have had a room for some time.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y treat me as one of the family.<br />
To Mrs. Lorene Faulkner Pearl, a busy mother, who has typed the manuscript with Christian<br />
commitment and for her very efficient work, her patience to this endeavor.<br />
To Mrs. Lola E. Stout, who has given many hours in preparing the manuscript from the rough<br />
draft and proofreading and layout of the book.<br />
