Foreword

Emma Lofton is widely known in churches in the south and mid-west areas as a dynamic speaker at conventions and conferences. Upon receiving the baton after the passing of her husband and pastor she compels others to heed the calling of God to do His will! As a lady, she encourages other females that hesitate to fulfill their gifts because of gender. More and more, our culture is accepting women for leadership in our churches. If you want to be challenged in your thinking and understanding in all walks of life, Emma has a word from the Lord to give insight from her personal experiences.

Her Journey Of A Preacher’s Wife is informative to wives that have lost their husbands but desire to continue the ministry in which they’ve invested.

She is regarded as a woman of excellence and you will learn what the bible says about a Godly woman!

-Bishop Eugene Griddine &

Lady ADean Griddine (Kansas City, MO)

Special Acknowledgement

Dedicated to my husband Supt. M. D. Lofton in Heaven whose shoulders I stand on. He helped me to become the woman I am and all that I was meant to be. To my three beautiful and talented daughters, LaKimbria (Michael), Kadesha (Mario) and Tareka for their encouragement and standing by my side after their dad went to be with the Lord.

And to my four grands, that are near and dear to my heart, for keeping me going. The oldest Micaela (my financial guru), Kennadi (the family church mother), Joel (youngest family entrepreneur), and Jaslyn (the family analytical brain). They all are an inspiration in my life’s journey and to writing this book.
