With both sadness and joy I regret to inform all of you that tonight February 11 at 9:40 pm my lovely wife Amy went to be with Jesus. This is a mighty victory and the half will never be known. With great love and appreciation to all who have joined with us.
Joel
My heart, my thoughts, and my prayers are with you.
There are no words that can express what you must be feeling. Amy fought her fight and finished her course and received her PHd which is “IN THE ARMS OF JESUS”. To the Hart and Stockstill family, may God forever bless and keep you during this time of sorrow. We love you and know that you are in God’s very capable hands.
Pastor Joel,
Templo Calvario Youth Leadership is praying for you. You are not alone.
Pastor Joel,
I was deeply saddened when I learned about Amy’s passing. The memory of her will always be in my heart. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time. May God’s Grace strengthen you and your heart and soul find peace and comfort.
I’m praying for you

“Last night 2 mighty men of God came in and prayed for Amy around 1 am this morning and spoke the word of the Lord over her and declared her healed.”
AND SHE WAS!!!
Hebrews 11:13:
“All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance. And they admitted that they were aliens and strangers on earth. 14People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own. 15If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return. 16Instead, they were longing for a better country—a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them”
Praying for you Pastor Joel and your entire family during this time. One day soon we will all be together in that “city God has prepared for us!!”

You and your family will continue to be in our prayers. We are so sorry for the loss of your beautiful “Amy.” May God Bless You and Keep You Safe In His Hands.
Joel, people from our church are praying with you. I’m so sorry to hear about your wife, even knowing she is rejoicing in a way we can only dream of… it still hurts and there will be much sadness in the days, months, years to come. May your God of all comfort make His presence known to you in this specific are from here on out. He will not let you hurt without binding up your broken heart.
Hi Joel! I pray that God gives you strength to indure losing your beautiful wife Amy. I was there when you introduced her as your fiance’, and I saw the joy of the Lord in her.You may remember this remark that I said to you “Amy is your Jewel” I said that at your reception after your wedding. Just remember to be strong the Lord is always with you!
I had dinner with Amy and Joel the first night I met them 2 years ago I flew out to Indiana not knowing anyone and next thing you know I’m sitting by two of the most influential people I could ever meet. Power, beauty, and kindness are understatments of the description that flourished from this couple. True Love Prue Love All Love! Amy looked Angelic when ever I saw her. Obviously the Earth couldn’t contain her beauty. Thank You Amy and Joel for showing me what marriage really is! And thank you GOD for allowing for our paths to cross. Honestly an Honor! I LOVE YOU GUYS! DREW D. bay area, CA

You probably don’t know me but I took care of your wife for a couple of days when she was at MD Anderson late last year. Even though I only knew her for a short time I felt close to her and her family. I was saddened to hear about the news of her death but I know she is an angel in heaven watching over us. You and your family are in my prayers.

Dear Pastor Joel,
I heard your lovely wife Amy speak about a year ago when my husband and I took our leaders to one of your conferences.
What she shared truly touched my heart and impacted my life.
I am so sorry for your loss, we will be praying for you that the peace of our heavenly Father will comfort you and bring peace to your heart.
With love and sympathy,
Jonathan and Elishya Cook

Malachi 3:16
Joel,
God allowed Amy’s healing to take place in heaven instead of here on earth. We all wanted it to take place here, but, rejoice because even in her passing, the life Amy lived will still cause mighty things to take place in the Kingdom of God. Our hearts and our prayers are with you and the rest of your family during this time.
In Christ,
John & Talisha Davis
Our family has been praying for both of you and for your healings to be manifested in your bodies . We continue to pray for you both . We know that God is truly the only one who has the final say in this matter concerning Amy . We are praying that God will raise her from the death bed . Death where is thy sting ! Jesus went and took personally the keys of death and hell . Death couldn’t hold Him down and we are believing Him for the same for you both .You say God has given you dreams and visions concerning you and Amy . I then say, “Rise Up O Man Of GOD And Don’t Settle For Second Best Unless That Is Truly All That GOD Has Promised You .” We are praying for all of you to rise up in this hour Randy , Beth , Angie , Andrew and the Stockstill family .We are continuing to fight !! We want to see the Lord do just what He says He will in His word .I BELIEVE , I BELIEVE !!!!!!!! Carole (Cox) Bilbao
Our prayers are with you and your family.
Pastor Amy was so kind and sweet, when we heard the news the world got a little more bitter for us, She was truly a blessing.
We love you
Pastor Joel,
Tyler and I can’t even try to imagine what you’re going through, and how your heart must ache. We’re so sorry! If we, or any of our students at HPC can do anything for you and/or your students at Bethany please just have someone let us know.

I am a member of your church. Although we have never met formally I am very familiar with you and your wifes ministy. I will not attempt to rationalize the acts of God especially in a time like this. It was alway so evident to me how much you loved your wife. On stage you would always hold her hand and seat her afterwards. Joel your treatment of Amy was that of a true queen. She was the light of your life but she is also the light of Gods eye. I am sure nothing in life could ever prepare any of us for this kind of loss. We read about it hear about it but until it is us, the pain has to be something no one could have explained. My hope for you is that you find a peace and a deeper relationship with the Master. I usher in a new closeness and comfort and that you one day you have love again in Gods time. I too feel joy in my heart for Amy but it is those on earth such as yourself that I feel for. You have prayer warriors all around you and neither you or your family are forgotten. To the parents and siblings of Joel and Amy, God cares. He wants your honesty in this time of mourning. Come unto him his little children. Each of you are his children and he is reaching down to give each of you the kind of comfort that only God can. With all the love your heart can hold
Peace Be with You
Jade& Jada
My heart breaks with you Joel and I pray supernatural peace over you and your family. Amy is very special to us and to her King.
Pastor Joel,
I’m still believing God for a miracle. Matthew 9:18-19 & 23-26.
Standing in Faith,

Though we have only crossed paths at bethany we were family and i know that through this circumstance will come many victories!! Amy was working the whole time she was in the hospital, souls were saved, lives were changed, the church was stregthened and the love of God’s people grew enormously. Her work will continue threw her spirit. Thank you for being such a great example for all of us Joel, you are the picture of Christ’s love. We love you FAMILY!!
Pastor Joel,
I am from Connecticut, but listen to your podcasts often. You dont know me but you have influenced my life through your awesome preaching. We are praying for you on the east coast too!
Joel,
May the peace and comfort of Jesus be with you and your family during this time. We send you our sincere love and heartfelt prayers
Our hearts are broken over the loss of this dear soldier. Amy was a warrior till the end. Thank you Joel for allowing us to enter this battle with you. The Body of Christ has been drawn closer together and closer to God through this intense warfare.
Just a few facts: Amy’s work on earth will bear fruit for years to come! Heaven is her new home! Victory is won! She’s part of the great cloud of witnesses! We’ll all be united soon!
Our prayers as well as the prayers of the Miracle Place Church staff are with you. Our hearts are filled with love for you and your family and we pray the peace and comfort of the Lord be with you all.
Pastor Joel,
You don’t know me and you may never will. I listen to your messages downloaded from the 220 website. My thoughts and my prayers go out to.
Yours in Christ,
Jon
Dear Joel,
The Body of Christ has been moved to pray, hope and share your faith and concerns as you and Amy walked through this trial. We are now moved to pray, mourn and share your loss. We are with you and we are in one accord. It is through His body that the love of God is reflected in times like these. May you have the peace that passes all human understanding. We love you.
Pastor Amy was such a beautiful woman of God. She taught us so much. I pray that the Lord be with you in this time. I am praying for you and your family.”The lord giveth and the Lord taketh away, but blessed be the name of the Lord”
We are deeply saddened by your loss. Amy touched so many thousands of lives and we thank the Lord for each day she was here. We are praying for your family and the Hart family that God’s strength and peace be with you.
Pastor Joel. You and Amy have impacted a nation. In the northernmost tip of this country we are praying for you. We hurt with your hurt. Pastor Amy was such a blessing to us at all your conferences.
Pastor Joel,
You and your family will continue to be in my prayers as you have already been. I pray God’s strength and comfort be with you. You and Amy’s lives have been encouraging to me because of y’alls steadfastness and continued, unrelenting faith. Thanks for your service in the ministry.
Pastor Joel
Words can not explain the deep heart shattering pain we feel. We Love you and Amy we thank God for you all daily. We praise God for your unwavering faith. You being one of our leaders for several years we know your battles and some of your pains, and yet you stand. Both you and Amy has been servants and through it all continue to give yourself to the body of Christ daily . We love you and Amy, the impression that she has left on our lives will live on. Death is hard for us in the natural, my first encounter of loss was my mother, God as good as he is, allowed her to pass over in my arms singing and praiseing him. Devastated and hurt as we all are I praise God, even though our desired outcome did not come about, God’s did. Being a child of God Joel you nor your family can lose. You, Amy, her family and your family are Blessed and we pray that God’s love cuddles you all and rock you right where you are. I can not say enough we love you. We cry, sing, pray and praise with you. Stay strong my dear brother! Stay strong! Victory!
Pastor Joel I/we love you guys so much. It is such a blessing to have you as a Pastor, so encouraging to see your strength and faithfulness to God. It’s a mystery, the power of God, the mind of God, the perfect will of God…. In Ecclesiastes 3 it says “There is a time and season for everything, a time to mourn and a time to dance…. a time to weep & a time to laugh…
I am praying for you and your family in this time of sorrow.
Though the sorrow may last for the night, JOY comes with the morning!!! I pray the peace that passes all understanding will give you comfort in the loss of such a beautiful Woman Of God! Holy spirit give us comfort in this dearing time of sadness.
In His Love And Mine,
Cindy Brunner
I am just one of many in our church family who love you and support you and who will continue praying for you.
I am more then sure that the seeds Amy has planted in young people hearts will continue to out live us all. She has definitely left her mark. She will be very missed. May the love of God surround you during this difficult time.
Joel
Tim and I will keep you and your family in our prayers. We are very sorry on the lost of your love one. my God bless you.
Hey joel,
It took me so long to write b/c I don’t know what to say or how to ease ur burden or pain, and I still cant do that…so I’ll tell everyone what Jesus has been telling me today… we may have lost the battle for Amy’s physical health, BUT HE will win the war!
My vision hasn’t changed, it’s being intensified!
Joel- I look fwd to many victorious battles w/ u!
Dear Pastor Joel and Family,
I am a member of HPC, and only recently learned about Amy. I pray that you find peace and comfort in knowing she is with the Lord, and is no longer in pain. My prayers continue to be with you and your family, God Bless You!
Pastor Joel,
My deepest condolences. I am saddened at the news of your wife, Amy. I have never been to your church, or heard any of your preaching, but I know that my friend Marian knows of you. I received a message on facebook to pray for you and your wife. I had absolutely no idea what prayer was needed but definitely took time to, and will still continue to pray for you, your family, and hers. Pastor Amy is with Our Lord Jesus and is having the time of her life right now! The heavens rejoice at her welcome. May you have peace and blessing!
THIS IS FOR JOEL: MAY THE GOD OF ALL COMFORT, COMFORT YOU AT THIS TIME AND IN THE DAYS TO COME. I AM PRAYING FOR YOUR STRENGTH AND THAT GOD WILL GIVE YOU THE GARMENT OF PRAISE FOR THE SPIRIT OF HEAVINESS AND THE OIL OF JOY FOR MOURNING. I WILL KEEP PRAYING FOR YOU AND AMY’S FAMILY. MAY GOD KEEP YOU.
Pastor Joel,
My prayers are with you and the whole family. Amy was such a great blessing to the entire Bethany family and will greatly be missed. Although her time here was short, she made such a huge impact on alot of people, and her impact will continue. Now she is suffering no more and she is totally healed in Jesus name! I know you are a mighty man of God with great faith and that faith in our Awesome God will see you through this!
With Love from our family to yours,
Melissa & Greg Manchester
We will continue to stand behind you and your family as a church and pray that God gives you strength during this time. “What the devil meant for evil, God will turn it around for the good.” I don’t know why this happened and we will never know until we see Sister Amy again, but the devil better watch out because the CHURCH is rising up as one body and God will show himself faithful in this situation. I pray that God begins to prepare you Bro. Joel for the places he is going to take you and the things he is going to do through you. I believe with all of my heart that God is going to use this tragic loss to shake our city, our state, and our nation! My prayers are with you Bro. Joel, be blessed.
Psalm 30:11-12
“You have turned my mourning into joyful dancing. You have taken away my clothes of mourning and clothed me with joy, that I might sing praises to you and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give you thanks forever.”
I will continue to keep you and your family in my prayers.
