Hello, my name is Linda Carlile

I am a 59-year-old widow.
My husband, Joseph W. Carlile passed away in 2007.
I loved him dearly. He is missed greatly.
I have five children and three grandchildren.
I also have a sister, two brothers, and one cousin.
My Mother and my Auntie are both alive and serving the Lord Jesus.
I love my family dearly.

I have a CDL-A license, and as you can see from the picture – I am a Professional Driver. I started trucking in 2011 and I have over a million safe miles. The truck in this picture was my second truck.
I Love Trucking!

I have two home churches in the Hurst, Euless, Bedford area:

Central Baptist Church Bedford, TX. Pastor Steven Ridings
1120 Central Drive
CBC has a friendly neighborhood church vibe

Cross City Church Euless, TX. Pastor John Meador
Located on the corner of Hwy 183 and Industrial Blvd.

I enjoy both of these churches.

I joined First Baptist Euless in 1984 when Jimmy Draper was our pastor, and he served as President of the Southern Baptist Convention that year. I was in the orchestra playing my flute, and my mother was in the church choir. We both attended the Convention that summer in Kansas City.
The link to this Convention is included here. I went back recently to watch it all again. The preaching was phenomenal.

My children attended this church as well. With Trinity High School next door, it was always a popular church for high school students because of the various teen programs.
This church, formerly known as “First Baptist,” has been a MEGA church for over 50 years. The past 20 years have brought explosive growth to “Cross City” and now there are four campuses across the Dallas/Fort Worth area.
The church itself is about like a couple of football fields, three stories tall, more than 65,000 square feet. They also have so much parking outside, that guys come around on golf carts picking up anyone with difficulties walking that far.
