JOHN WAYNE Subject: John Wayne & Dr. Schuller Most of you know John Wayne and Dr Robert Schuller. You may not know what happened to him before he died. This is that story! Dr. Robert Schuller's teenage , Cindy, was in a motorcycle accident and had to have her leg amputated. John Wayne was a big fan of Robert Schuller. He heard Dr. Schuller say on one of his programs that his had been in an accident and had to have her leg amputated. John Wayne wrote a note to her saying: Dear Cindy: Sorry to hear about your accident. Hope you will be all right. Signed, John Wayne The note was delivered to her and she decided she wanted to write John Wayne a note in reply. She wrote: Dear Mr. Wayne: I got your note. Thanks for writing to me. I like you very much. I am going to be all right because Jesus is going to help me. Mr. Wayne, do you know Jesus? I sure hope you know Jesus, Mr. Wayne, because I cannot imagine Heaven being complete without John Wayne being there. I hope, if you don't know Jesus, that you will give your heart to Jesus right now. See you in Heaven. And she signed her name. She had just put that letter in an envelope, sealed it, and written across the front of it "John Wayne" when a visitor came into her room to see her. He said to her: What are you doing? She said: I just wrote a letter to John Wayne, but I don't know how to get it to him. He said: That's funny, I am going to have dinner with John Wayne tonight at the Newport Club down at Newport Beach. Give it to me and I will give it to him. She gave him the letter and he put it in his coat pocket. There were twelve of them that night sitting around the table for dinner. They were laughing and cutting up and the guy happened to reach in his pocket and felt that letter and remembered. John Wayne was seated at the end of the table and the guy took the letter out and said: Hey, Duke, I was in Schuller's 's room today and she wrote you a letter and wanted me to give it to you. Here it is. They passed it down to John Wayne and he opened it. They kept on laughing and cutting up and someone happened to look down at John Wayne. He was crying. One of them said: Hey, Duke, what is the matter? He said (and can't you hear him saying it), " I want to read you this letter." He read the letter. Then he began to weep. He folded it, put it in his pocket, and he pointed to the man who delivered it to him and said: "You go tell that little girl that right now, in this restaurant, right here, John Wayne gives his heart to Jesus Christ and I will see her in heaven." Three weeks later, John Wayne died. You never know how your witness to another will effect their eternity! To everything there is a season and a time to every purpose under the heaven.

I really enjoyed your post and truely pray that it happened just as it read.I am a fan of the Duke,there are few actors who you can feel as if you met them on the street they would act just like you see them on T.V. But he was one of them.He and Jimmy Stuart.

Ya sounded just like him, JC's. I can almost hear him sayin, "All right, listen up! There's a lot of work to be done yet. God didn't bring us all this way to sit on our duffs. People are dying out there, and you, or you there the back, may be the one person they'll listen to. Time's a wastin', Pilgrims. Now... let's move out."
