Rev. Hercules Champaign was a pillar in the midst of the storm for my mother, daughter and me. While his body may be deteriorated; the leadership skills, his gifts and talents, master teaching and unconditional love for his congregation will live on. He is truly a God send and very much appreciated. Sincerely,
