To know Rev. Bonner is to love him. I met Pastor Bonner when he came to St. John in 2005. When he did his first sermon I was blown. I knew he was chosen by God. I will never forget one of his favorite saying. "What's wrong with them". I would just laugh. I must say Rev. Bonner you will be truly miss. RIP Pastor
