Ellen McAdams, 80, of Garden City, has spent over 40 years spreading the Assemblies of God message. Her life began with a healed father at a revival in Erie, Pennsylvania, influencing the Fischer family to convert from German Lutheran roots. She met her husband F Rudolph McAdams at Central Bible College and they preached in many towns over nearly 37 years, starting with a French school in Montreal before returning to the United States in 1946 for their first daughter Francine.
