A Faithful Servant Moves Into His Mansion

6/2/2021

John Lanier went to his eternal home in Heaven on June 1. For those who have known him and have worked ministries with him, you know what a soldier for Christ he was. He was a Bible scholar and a fine teacher of the Word. He reflected Christ in all that he did. Most importantly, he loved to tell the Gospel Story and was a faithful worker at the tent ministry at the Georgia National Fair and so many other ministries. Stricken with the mental prison that is Alzheimer's disease, the past few years have been difficult for him and those who loved him. Praise God he is now released from that affliction and is praising God in Heaven! Please pray for his wife Etta as she copes with life without her husband and lifelong soulmate. Below is the text she posted on Facebook telling of his last earthly moments.

"My sweet husband went home to be with the Lord this afternoon.  He had been under Hospice care since January and had taken a turn for the worse this past Friday.  I put some Christian music on and had a talk with him after lunch.  I told him  I loved him, but that he was very sick.  I told him that Jesus was waiting for him with open arms and that he would be made whole again with no more struggles.  I also told him that I would be ok here, and that I would be joining him again soon.  Then I told him he was free to go.  Within an hour, he opened his eyes for a few seconds and looked upward, then he slipped out into eternity.  I covet your prayers as I grieve this tremendous loss in my life.  Funeral arrangements at McCullough Funeral Home here in Warner Robins are pending."
