We said goodbye this morning to one of our members, Muriel, who was called to rest in Jesus last Sunday morning. We sang "Just As I Am" and "Lift High the Cross." One of our pastoral assistants, Pastor Haak comforted the family with the healing balm of the Gospel of Jesus. We were reminded that the Lord keeps his promises including that which we confess in the Creed: ...the resurrection of the dead and the life everlasting.
Although her family's eyes were filled with tears, their hearts were filled with hope. But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. (1 Cor. 15:57) Thanks be to the Lord for His blessings and benefits for you and me!
