My family was introduced to Donnie at Community Christian Church in Tualatin, Oregon. We had 2 young sons not quite in middle school. We all heard Donnie’s message of how much we are loved and that our true strength comes through Jesus who died for us. Donnie captured us with his message of love. No shame. No judgement. Just love. My sons soaked that up like sponges and I believe was part of their faith foundation growing up. Today they are 28 and 25 and loving and pursuing their God with all their strength,heart and mind. Donnie was instrumental in our son’s perception of what strength really means. Thank you Donnie for your heart of loving others. We celebrate you and thank you for the beautiful legacy you have left to so many. God bless your family. May God grant you His peace that surpasses all understanding and keep you always.
