as Pastor of

[[Page 12001]]

Red Oak United Methodist Church in Stockbridge, Georgia. Pastor Pace, 
affectionately known as ``Big Daddy'', is a native of the state 
Georgia. He is married to the lovely First Lady, Reba Pace. They have 
eight children, eleven grandchildren and one great-grandchild. Pastor 
Pace has one brother who is also a minister/pastor.
  Dr. Pace and First Lady Pace came to Red Oak U.M.C. in 1989 from 
Golden United Methodist Church in Douglasville, GA. Upon their arrival, 
they were truly united in God's mission and as a result of much hard 
work, many prayers and many sacrifices made under his fine leadership, 
the ``New'' Red Oak was built along with the Christian Life Center.
  Certainly, Red Oak U.M.C. has served all congregation members and 
many others under the leadership of its pastor Dr. Pace and his lovely 
wife. They continue to work diligently as they serve others. I commend 
them at this celebration of their over 14 years of service to Red Oak 
United Methodist Church, and I encourage congregation members and 
friends to join in their appreciation celebration as Dr. and Mrs. Pace 
continue in their mission.
