A wonderful man. He was my mother's pastor before he and his wife left for the mission field. He is home with the One he loved so much! Praying for the family!

Re: Bennie Demerchant

What an incredible man! We had dinner with my parents tonight and my father talked about him. Said Bro Demerchant went to Brazil without knowing the language, and no churches there. Now some say there are a couple hundred or more in the capital city and a few thousand throughout Brazil.

God bless the Demerchants.

Met him in Dubai a couple of years ago - it was a great pleasure.
