Tribute is being paid to the work of the Reverend Matthew Else, pastor of the Grace Baptist Church in Peel, who died at the weekend.
Eric Kelly, who was organist at the church for 20 years, says he was a man who stuck to his bible principles and faith without compromise.
Mr Kelly says the Reverend Else will be best remembered for the Manx registered charity, the Grace Third World Fund, which he established (audio file attached):
