Brothers and Sisters.....

It goes without saying that my husband touched the countless lives of men and brethren in the ministry.  But he also changed the lives of many women.  Here are a few comments that were made about him from sisters in the Lord....

“He was a champion of others. The biggest cheerleader you could ever want but the toughest critic you’d ever need. I couldn’t get past a phone call or visit without piles of positive words thrown my way. If he saw a spark of greatness in you, he’d water that thing and pull it out of you even if you didn’t see it.” Pastor Liz Dolan

Archbishop Gregory Holley seemed bigger than life. His far-reaching influence for the Kingdom of God both humbles and inspires me. He left a very big footprint in the places he walked. His fearless spirit and lion strength throughout his life and especially in his last days are wonderful examples of faith. It is an honor and privilege to have been counted as his friend. Pastor Andrea Galloway

Yesterday was a spectacular Legacy Service for the greatest man I’ve ever known, Metropolitan Archbishop Gregory Holley. I got a text yesterday from our Pastor Jason John Cowart, “And the only thing better than experiencing a legacy is carrying it on...”. The service ended with a grand Charge to carry on the work of the Lord and to expand the Kingdom of God. Bishop Sean Mooney and Pastor Angela Mooney have been trained, equipped, anointed and divinely appointed to do this. Together we stand with you, encouraging you, supporting you and praying for you. Saying goodbye to the man who became my father was very difficult; however, his words echo in my ear and forever will be the compass that leads me back to Jesus. Minister Deborah Ruppert

I stood proudly beside Archbishop Greg Holley and very humbly among my brothers on this day. He would ordain me as the first female Bishop in ICCI. His encouragement saw me through many challenges. Rest well great warrior of the faith. We’ll catch up with you soon. Missionary Bishop Robin Posgay

A great man of God has gone home today. He has put down his sword and is receiving his reward. He battled cancer for 16 months but he battled the enemy of our soul his entire life. He has had victory after victory and I am forever thankful for the time I spent under the ministry of Bishop Greg Holley and his precious wife Gayla Holley, daughter Angela Mooney and son in law Bishop Sean Mooney. Wayne and I are so glad to have called Bishop friend. Dear Bishop it’s not goodbye, it’s “See ya later.” We will continue the battle now.  Sister Carla Wade

My Uncle Greg Holley has found rest and peace as He reached out and grabbed onto the hands that formed him, the hands that have carried him, sustained him and allowed him to be a vessel of God’s glory and His renown...for he has reached the finish line and has received his crown.

No more pain, no more suffering. He has fought the good fight and he has finished the race and he stands before our Savior face to face....his journey is done yet his legacy will forever live on.

The angels sing, the great cloud of witnesses rejoice as he is embraced by his Heavenly Father, who says, “Well done, my good and faithful son.”

I love you and I will see you again someday.

Love your niece,

Summer Joy

 

Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about Bishop Gregory who sleeps in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope.
