Also included are videos and posts by Elizabeth Schaarschmidt. Schaarschmidt (Pastor Al) and his wife, Elizabeth co-founded BLESSED HOPE CHURCH OF THE NAZARENE (42 Mercer St. Phillipsburg, NJ) in 1980. A remarkably selfless man who, with his devoted family and congregation, via God's strength, built and maintained the downtown church they loved. For 44 + years, through many challenges - and in his
last few years - through five cancer surgeries, Pastor Al marched on with the platoon God provided and remained faithful to The Mission of the Gospel, to his family and to his congregation. "Pastor Al" went to Heaven on July 31, 2024, and his family will continue to post his messages, photos and videos.
