Why do I call this the gospel road?  Because life is a journey and we never know what is around the next corner or over the next hill, our walk with the Lord is believing the life of Jesus is just the same as when he walked this earth.
 
Adolph Makus accepted the Lord in his early 20s, a friend invited him to church he was so persistent in asking him, he decided to go just to get him off his back. Being raised a Lutheran he felt that was enough. It was a powerful Pentecostal meeting, when there was a message speaking in tongues, He thought to himself I know a lot of languages maybe I’ll be able to understand it. Something told him it was God speaking he fell to his knees and accepted the Lord. That night he went home to tell his parents what happened, they were quite upset, they did not want him to leave the Lutheran church.
 
Through the process of time he worked his way out West. There he visited a little mission that Mary Sanders was ministering there. That is where he met Eva Sanders. Bro. Sis. Baldwin were attending there too. Eva Sanders was a close friend of Marie Baldwin. That was Fern Olsen’s grandmother, We had great fellowship with them through many years. God does bind families together to many generations. God is good.
 
Adolph and Eva traveled.
 
With the Sanders trip to California, they were married while down there. They decided to go back to Wisconsin. Mom said it was an extremely hard adjustment because she completely entered into the German neighborhood, she finally understood more than she could speak. When my brother Art started school all he could speak was German. At this time, they were living on the farm, so they decided to only speak English.
