Guest Book

My deepest sympathies to the family for your loss. Nothing can prepare us for the grief and pain of loosing a loved one. Psalms 34:18 tells us that “God is close to the broken-hearted “ May it comfort you to know God is eager to restore life to those who have fallen asleep in death and promises to do so by means of a resurrection (John 5:28,29) to a Beautiful Paradise earth with sickness,pain, death being removed forever (Revelation 21:4)
