Authors Raymond G. and Glenda S. Candy - With over 30 years in Christian ministry, Mr. and Mrs. Candy have been Pastors, Teachers, Evangelists, Missionaries, and have established and been the Principal of three Christian schools. Their experience in teaching and working with children from Kindergarten through High School has given them a unique perspective and ability to relate to children at any level. This becomes evident in the reading of The Little Pig Dog series of books for children. Their experience as Ministers and their desire to bring revival to the smaller congregations and less fortunate is demonstrated in their Christian books about the miracle working power of God in the lives of everyday, ordinary individuals. Now in addition to The Little Pig Dog series of children books is their new “How to Walk Christian Series” of books and their book of memoirs entitled “The Memoirs of the Servants of the Lord”- a miraculous account of the Candy family’s Christian ministry.
