Dear friends,
Our heavenly Father has called David Wilkerson home...
A sadness lays over my heart..
but a deep gratitude also.
For the blessings his ministry has brought into the world.
The souls he has led to the Lord.
The faithful witness of his love for Christ.
And for the personal impact he had on my own life, when I returned to the Lord over 30years ago, and for the encouragement in the years since then.
"Hold fast to your faith. Stand fast in his Word. There is no other hope in this world."
The last three sentences from his daily devotional at David Wilkerson Today
Blessed be the Lord!
So sad to hear that, but I'm sure there is a great homecoming in heaven. What a glorious day for him and Jesus. He has fought the good fight and influenced many lives, including mine. I rejoice with him.

The Lord used David Wilkerson to touch many lives, including mine and my hubby's. I was 20 when I first heard of David Wilkerson and his book the Cross and the Switchblade. The book made a profound impact on my life. Since then, he was always a mentor to my hubby and me. I'm sure there is much rejoicing in heaven right now!
