Dear Gayle: Hello Gayle my name is Anita Edmondson. I have tried many times trying to email you and never knowing if you were receiving them. My church Burk's Chapel A.M.E. church is having an Unsung Hero Luncheon August 15 2009, and I would absolutely love to ask you to be our speaker. Our theme is "God has sustained us in the Past, the Present and he will sustain us in the future". Gayle, I know that you are a VERY VERY BUSY LADY,but if you could find time to please help our church this would be my WILDEST DREAM. Gayle, we have approxiamately 25 members who attend church regularly, although there are approxiamately 150 members on the roll. Gayle I have not told the young ladies who are helping me with this because I want this to be THE BEST UNSUNG HERO LUNCHEON IN PADUCAH. Gayle this is the first real program that I have chaired. I've helped on many many programs in the past but this one I am the chair-person. Gayle please email me if there is a slight possibility if you can attend. My church will pay for your lodging and we will give you a love donation. I would absolutely love to put GAYLE KING NAME ON THE MARKEE. I will continue to pray about this. If you can't come we understand and we love you with the love of the Lord. GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME AND ALL THE TIME GOD IS GOOD. Thanks again and we look forward to hearing from you.
