MRS. DAVE MACK
I, Sarah, Krause, was born on the 11th of March, 1887, near Jansen, Neb. My parents, Peter and Margareta (Thiessen) Krause, were concerned about the spiritual welfare of their children and did all they could to acquaint us with God's Word. At the aqe of 12 years, I accepted the Lord as my personal Saviour, was baptized by Elder Jacob Wiebe on the 25th day of June, 1899, and was accepted into the Krimmer Mennonite Brethren Church at Lehigh, Kansas.
After the death of our father, our mother with my brother Herman and myself moved to Reedley, Calif. and joined the fellowship of the Reedley Mennonite Brethren Church. Eighteen years later my loving mother went home to be with the Lord.
On Sept. 3, 1928,with the help of the Lord and much prayer,I joined in holy wedlock to Dave H. Mack and tried to take the place of a mother to his seven children. Although I have made many mistakes,God in His wonderful grace and love has always helped me and to Him belongs the honor and glory.
On Nov. 9, 1941, on a Sunday evening as we were preparing to go to church, I suffered a heart attack, fell and broke my hip, which caused me to stay in bed for five months. During this time of sickness I have felt the Lord's love and kindness to me in a special way. Much love and kindness was shown to me in this time, which only the Lord can and will reward. I found much comfort in these songs: "This World is not My Home," "O Think of the Home Over There," and "When I Take My Vacation in Heaven."
