A Note from World Missions Ministries
On behalf of the International Pentecostal Holiness Church World Missions Ministries family, we extend our deepest condolences to the family of Linda Queen during this time of her passing.
Beginning in 1996, Larry and Linda Queen faithfully served World Missions as International Evangelists. As such, they were not only active in preaching and teaching stateside, but also in many different regions of the world. Together the Queen’s preached revival services, helped with church plants, visited to assist missionaries and ministries abroad, and taught the Bible everywhere they went. Their ministry took them throughout the United States and to many other countries such as Romania, Malta, France, Singapore, Indonesia, India, Burma, the Philippines, China, Thailand, Peru, and other locations around the world.
Reports shared by the Queens often told stories of salvations as people would weep and repent, or rejoice with joy and excitement. Their reports also speak of many divine healings during their ministry; such as blind eyes opened. One story shared from Larry’s reports tells of Linda’s faith-filled prayers while visiting an orphanage in Peru.
“One little boy at the orphanage stuttered and refused to even give his name because he could not talk,” the report shared. “When Linda laid hands on him, God instantly healed him and he was excited because he could talk as the other children.”
We are forever grateful for the sacrificial service to the Kingdom of God displayed by ministers such as Linda Queen. May the Lord be near to comfort the family as they grieve.
On behalf of IPHC’s World Missions family,
