Major Margaret Jackson

In my last appointment in London as the International Secretary for South Pacific and East Asia zone, I had a very good secretary in the person of Major Margaret Jackson. We just received news that she was promoted to Glory last Saturday 11^th August. Since her retirement she had been living in Birmingham looking after her sick brother. Although she could hardly see, she kept up a correspondence with us by e-mail regularly.

We give thanks to God for her life. Certainly we were privileged to work with her so closely in London.

In 1 Corinthians 15:55 we as Christians are assured that “death has no sting.”  Jesus died on the cross to bring us eternal life. When we have to leave this world, we need not fear dying and death.We go to be with Jesus in heaven.

We will certainly meet Margaret again in Heaven.

Sing the wondrous love of Jesus, Sing His mercy and His grace; In the mansions bright and blessed He’ll prepare for us a place. Refrain: When we all get to heaven, What a day of rejoicing that will be! When we all see Jesus, We’ll sing and shout the victory! While we walk the pilgrim pathway, Clouds will overspread the sky; But when trav’ling days are over, Not a shadow, not a sigh. Let us then be true and faithful, Trusting, serving every day; Just one glimpse of Him in glory Will the toils of life repay. Onward to the prize before us! Soon His beauty we’ll behold; Soon the pearly gates will open; We shall tread the streets of gold.
