LambObituary Reverend James Thompson - Spring 2015 Addendum
Newsletters From Animal Padre's Christians Against All Animal Abuse

By a friend...

James was first and foremost an extraordinary man, a gentle man of great humility, honesty and compassion. James was also a committed priest who reached out from the pulpit, the internet, and the media to spread goodness wherever he could. This he did to the point of utter exhaustion.   To James, God was the creator of all and everything and Jesus was his way and his life. When posed with problems or confrontation he would inevitably say "What would Jesus have done". Then he simply did it even if it defied convention or diplomacy. Such was the backbone of this wonderful man.

The love of animals based on the unwavering belief that they are all God's creation coupled with the seemingly boundless abuse of their rights spirited James to wrestle with their plight. This he did with all the energy he could muster.

I had the privilege, honour and delight to be his friend. I feel blessed to have been privy to his thoughts, convictions and concerns. For me the light that emitted from this great soul will never extinguish but I will miss this wonderful man terribly.

Please keep James in your prayers.
