We absolutely adored our First Lady, Dr. Lois Evans. To our church family, she was a loyal friend, a devoted sister, a wise mentor, and a spiritual mother. She was our example of faithfulness and obedience to God’s Word and His ministry. Our collection of photos doesn’t come close to conveying the full impact Sister Evans had on the life of our ministry.

Mrs. Evans: I learned many years ago that GOD is A good GOD. Even in times when I could not see HOPE, I learned that hope is wrapped up in FAITH, and that “FAITH is the substance of things HOPED for”. I believe, also, that ‘healing’ and faith walk ‘hand in hand, while trusting in GOD, who is the author and finisher of our faith. May God continue to wrap you and hold you in the aura of HIS love. while His healing power envelopes you.
Praying for you:
Sarah Upshaw, C&C Ministry- OCBF
You are on my heart today, Mrs. Evans. May God restore your strength. May God keep you in His loving care. May you know how you are admired near and far.
Dear Mrs. Evans and family, just wanted you all to know that I will continue to PUSH (Pray Until Something Happens). Stay encouraged and believing that the God we serve still has more for you all to do here on this side of heaven and I believe is putting together a miraculous testimony for all to witness.
Yours in Christ,
Craig
CHRIST JESUS; Our Hope!
The LORD has His eyes on you!
In His heart, HE feels your pain!
HE knows everything you are going thru,
Hears you call on Him again, and again!
HE has seen your faithful walk thru life,
How much you hold your family dear!
GOD always hears the cries of the righteous,
And reaches out to wipe away our tears!
Since before you were born, HE has known you,
And set into action His plan,
That you would soon be joined to a loving husband,
And that together, in His name, you would stand!
HE’s the almighty protector; the great provider!
There’s no task that HE cannot achieve!
Knock, and HE will open; seek, and you will find Him;
Ask Him, and you will receive!
There are limits to what a man can do;
Many things we cannot understand.
Thus; we seek first GOD’s righteousness, and His kingdom!
We place our lives in His powerful hand!
In our times of weakness, HE will give us strength!
In our distress, the LORD will give us peace!
No matter what ails us, HE is able to heal,
And cause all of our troubles to cease!
———-(Jeremiah 33:3)
We love you! Get well! Trust GOD!

The strong example of godliness and truth Lois and Tony Evan’s has set is powerful. The way u both have allowed God to use u and stay committed to ruth is amazing. May God look down upon you both with mercy and grace. May he add many more years to Lois life and heal her body and keep her mind from fear. We serve a great God who controls all things.
To our beautiful First Lady,
The Lord bless you and keep you,
The Lord make His face shine upon you,
And be gracious to you,
The Lord lift up His countenance upon you,
And give you peace.
I’m praying without ceasing for you and family.
You have inspired me since 1989 and have been a role model for me, even though you have not been aware of it. Your love of God and your family has always been on display. As someone recently said in another context about how our appearance affects others, you demonstrate your love for others by never letting your appearance become a stumbling block for others. I am one of the many individuals whose lives have been touched by you. Thank you.
Prayers to Pastor E. and 1st E and family. My heart sends love hugs and smiles to the entire family during such a time as this.
I am praying without ceasing for you all morning noon and night. Praying peace comfort and healing and Gods will
Sister Evans
I pray for the sick and shut in, when I am on my knees. I ask in his name for his healing touch to touch you to strengthen your body. Matthew 4:23 . And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people.
Sister Evans, I will continue to lift up my voice to the LORD interceding and requesting divine healing and comfort for you and the entire Evans family. I know without a doubt the LORD is taking exceptional care of you and Pastor Evans. With the guidance of the Holy Spirit and the prayers of the Saints, you will be a wonderful testimony to us all and an example on how to walk through a crisis with Jesus holding your hand. He loves you more than you can image, and is right there embracing and holding you close. When you smell a sweet aroma, just know He is there. Yes, Jesus is right there smiling and holding you very close.
The doves surrounding you from above is releasing the tender love of Kings Jesus. As I seat here writing this note of love to you all I can vision is your beatuiful gracious face with that lovely smile. Know I love you and cherish, and honor the opportunity to call you sister. And I want to thank you for demonstrating the true character of a woman of grace. Keep smiling with the gracious smile Elohim design just for you. And thank you for pouring out your love to others just as Jevhoh pours out HIS love to you.
I will continue to say and believe, Jesus has you and all is well. I will think no different because under the Kingdom of God you are His child therefore in the Kingdom there is no sickness, nor disease. Again by HIS Stripes, you are HEALED. Believe and Receive, it “All is yours”.
I LOVE YOU, Our Delicate Flower In CHRIST JESUS.
Mrs. Evans, in your quiet time please reference these two individuals, the information was truly healing for me. Dr. Josh Axe and Jordan Rubin allow the Holy Spirit to guide you. They are biblically based, and their information is truly from the WORD. I hope this information blesses you just as it has blessed me in my journey. The LORD has delivered me from a Heart Attack and Congestive Heart Failure, HE is Truly a deleiver if we submit and follow the guidance of the Counselor “The HOLY SPIRIT”
Again I know this is a lot to read but this is what I was prompted to write.
Love you, keep smiling remember who you belong too.
Dear Sister Evans, I wanted you to know that myself and my mom are praying for you during this intense time and challenges. I am grateful to be apart of a church that is founded on prayers of the saints. And wanted to let you know I pray for you often. Take good care.
Cancer sucks. I know because I have it. But there is something else I know, our God is greater than cancer. Sis. Evans I am praying that God will choose to heal your body and restore you. When I came to Dallas 14 years ago I was a broken Preacher’s Kid. My faith in marriages had dimenished. I watched you and Pastor Evans and so many members at OCBF exemplify what love, relationships and community looks like. Every time I see you and Dr Evans together my heart smiles. Keep up the fight (as I am doing). God’s got you. You remain in my prayers . Much Love.
Dear Sis. Evans,
You are daily in our thoughts and prayers. We are asking the Lord for complete healing for you, for His kingdom purpose and His glory. I have been reflecting this morning on Psalm 59:16-17, joyfully proclaiming His lovingkindness. For He has been our stronghold and a refuge in the day of our distress, the God who shows you and me His lovingkindness. So we’ll just soak up His lovingkindness for today, one day at a time, and wait in great anticipation of what He will do on tomorrow!
Love,
Pat and Ray Jones
Mrs. Evans,

Yours In Christ,

Dear Sister Evans,
My family and I will continue to lift you in our prayers. I know Jevohah Rope our Healer will provide you healing, comfort and supernatural strength during your storm. Remember according to God’s word: You bore all of my sickness and by your stripes, I am healed; You were wounded for my transgressions & bruised for my iniquities; And I declare in the name of Jesus that my body will function in perfection; So every sickness, germ or disease that attempts to hinder my body must die instantly; Because I live the divine life; and I live in divine health; Because my tongue is my pen, and my words are my ink and whatever I say is so; And it is so; In my prescence, yokes are destroyed, burdens are removed in the name of Jesus. Sincerely, OCBF Member Sophia Wilsom
