Frank Wade Lattimore

I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.’ … And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’ Matthew 25:36, 40

If a person’s life had to be summed up in one scripture, this is the scripture that sums up Frank Lattimore’s life.

Frank’s missionary ministry involvement included Pastoring, Bible teaching, jail and prison ministry, Camp Director and various children’s ministries.  All of which were an outlet for his heart’s desire for reaching the lost for Christ.

His passion for evangelism was matched only by his commitment to prayer. Frank understood the power and importance of prayer.  Even in the midst of losing his battle with cancer, Frank prayed. If he knew you, he prayed for you. He wept not for himself, but for all of you; seeking God on your behalf. 

Frank’s final plea is this: For those of you who know Christ, go deeper.  For those of you who don’t, seek Him while He can be found.
