I Remember President Carter
He NEVER Announced To The World What.A Great Guy He Was
AND What He Did After The Presidency
He Didn’t Need Adulation
To Be Praised By Others
He Was Truly A Legend

I loved today's service back in Washington, but this one was Jimmy more than the other. May he rest in peace.❤

Praise be to God ❤ what a service and what a Eulogy ! If our world needs an example this (he) was it. A man who loved God and loved the world. There will never be another leader like J. C. The Paster set the standard of leadership of what a true man of God is and what the leadership SHOULD BE. Thank you Carter family for sharing this beautiful obituary of your beloved father and grandfather. God bless you and give you rest and fill you with his love and presence in your days ahead. We love you ❤🙏🏼 Thank you Pastor Lowden. God bless you 😢❤

Thank you to Fox 5 in Atlanta for uploading this on to YouTube. Most people around the country didn't get a chance to see it.

Because I was standing on the streets of Plains GA today I could not view the Maranatha service on live video, so I am grateful to have viewed it now. Watching Mr. Carter, and his family, pass through Plains in the cold and the dark just after this service brought tears of humble gratitude to my eyes. Godspeed, dear Jimmy.

Every word spoken about this great man, who inspires us to be better, since he died has shown a glaring light on what once was, what we hope and pray for to be again, and what we know is coming. Thank you, God, for Jimmy Carter. His light was so bright. ❤

The humble, faithful and beloved servant of God has come back to his home church, where he's spent for many years with his brothers and sisters. This touches me deeply...
I miss him very much, but he'll be in my heart forever, keep touching and inspiring my life, like many brothers and sisters in the world, those cherish and love him. I'm looking forward seeing him again.

My prayers for the family members and the church,
With much love and respect from Japan ❤
