REV. HERBERT E. PALMERhas been ably serving as interim Senior Pastor of Camphor Memorial UMC since July, 2008. A distinguished theologian, preacher and administrator, Rev. Palmer has returned from retirement three times to lead Camphor in ministry to the congregation and community. We are grateful to him and his wife, Peggy, for their dedication and devotion to Camphor. This poem, by Judy Crowe, further expresses our love for our pastor:
I see the hands that hold God's word
And fold in prayer to seek His will.
I see the feet that walk the path
And offers of praise as from lofty hill.
I see the hands that serve Him well,
The ears that seek to hear His call,
The mouth that speaks truth and wisdom,
The busy feet that carry the message to all.
I see the heart that was priked and entered
When God's man answered the gospel call
And yielded His life as a humble servant,
A man who is willing, as was Apostle Paul.
I see all of this as he stands in the pulpit,
An instrument through which God speaks
The words of wisdom, of love and peace,
To lead and guide all those whom God seeks.
