When sorrows come, God's promises are shining rays of hope that break through cloudy skies brings us warmth and helps us cope. He promises to love us and to hear our every prayer. To comfort and guide us and to always just be there. He promises to give us strength to weather any storm. To be someone we can lean on who will keep us safe. God will never leave us alone when skies are gray. As long as we believe and trust, his love will light our way(Hebrews 13:5). Take all the time you need to grieve. It's ok to cry and mourn, never let anyone tell you any different. Remember, even Jesus wept when he found out that Lazarus died(John 11:33-35). Always know that I am here for you if you should ever need anything
Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
