My wife's sister

Postby Pastor Gary » May 22nd, 2008, 9:51 am

A few of you here know my wife, Amy's, family in Alabama. Some knew that her sister, Mary, has been struggling for a few years with a series of devastating health problems, including cancer.

Mary breathed her final breath yesterday. At her request, there will be no funeral or memorial service beyond a small, family-only gathering.

When last we talked, she indicated that she felt that she was spiritually ready to go, and had been reconciled to God, for which we are thankful. I just wanted to post this because now and then we get "How's Mary?" questions.
"God is excited to show you mercy. He rises to give you His compassion." (Isaiah 30:18)

"For surely, O LORD, you bless the righteous;
you surround them with your favor as with a shield." (Psalm 5:12)

Sorry to hear that. Praying for you and the family during this time.

the families are in our prayers.
You cannot effectively love and minister to others when you are obsessed with protecting
and preserving yourself.

I'm so sorry to hear that. I enjoyed the time that I had visited her in the hospital in the past. My thoughts are with Amy's family.
