Biographical / Historical

In 1964, the Church of God Missions Board sent Margaret Gaines to Jerusalem. While there she established a church and elementary school in the village of Aboud. Margaret Gaines began the Aboud School in 1970 and served as the principal until 1983. The original school building was completed March 25, 1973 and was dedicated in September of the same year. Gaines served as pastor of the Aboud Church of God until 1992. Although a fourth heart-attack forced Gaines to relocate to Pell City, Alabama, in 1996, she continued to bless the people of Aboud with building projects, fund raising, and advisory leadership.
