American Legion Hall

Guest Speaker

Rev. JAMES SPAN

James Span was born in W. Virginia, the last of 8 children to an alcoholic mother, who died when he was nine years old. He and his older brother went to live with his Grandmother, who was a deaconess in a Holiness Church.

He rebelled against the strict rule in that home, and began running the streets and using drugs secretly. His brother ended up in prison for murder, and James became involved in a gang. This behavior persisted for many years.

One day, while using drugs, he suddenly announced that he was going to "quit drugs" and "preach the gospel". His wife said "OK", but soon decided that was not the life for her, and they eventually parted.

James eventually surrendered his life completely to God, is now happily married and is serving as Assistant Pastor of The Jesus Party, a ministry in Lewiston, Maine, with a strong emphasis in reaching out to inner-city kids with the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Come and hear this stirring testimony of God's grace reaching out to him and transforming his life in a powerful way.
