We celebrate the life of Pastor Ray Franks. Ray went to be with the Lord early this afternoon. What a legacy this strong man of God has left us all! He helped form FGGAM with excellent Godly advice.  I will never forget the letter Pastor Ray wrote for me to help establish FGGAM. He taught me much, one of the most imporant things he told me was, “Dewey, always pray that the Lord’s Will be done.” Pastor Ray was the founder of KAZQ TV CH 32 and the Evangel Christian Center and School in Albuquerque, New Mexico.  Also Pastor Ray founded K-Lite Christian Radio, KLYT signed on the air in 1975 with a light contemporary Christian music format under the auspices of the newly formed Christian Broadcasting Academy.

  1. Sorrowful for the family of such a wonderful man of God! What a privilege to have been touched by this life!! The legacy he leaves is massive and profound!

    I rejoice for all he touched and that God called him to his reward, but I cry for those left behind who will have such a void without him.
