A dear Saint of God and special friend to my family when I was growing up has passed on to her reward in heaven. This dear lady endured many trials during her life time but always had a wonderful attitude and a smile to share with everyone. Her example has impacted my life in many ways. She found her strength in God.
She took a personal interest in me as a teen-ager. I wanted to compete in Talents for Christ in the Bible Knowledge division. She personally typed up study questions and answers on every single verse in the books of 1 & 2 Corinthians. I still have them today, from 1976. I didn't come in first or even second, but I learned a lot and Margaret Sorstokke will always be remembered for her labor of love.
Margaret was a prayer warrior. She kept notebooks of missionaries that she prayed for. She not only prayed for them, she wrote to them too.
My world was blessed by this dear lady. Now she is in heaven with her Lord and doesn't have to endure any more trials or pain. She leaves many who will miss her, but many who will join her in heaven one day. Thank you Margaret for your example and love.
