Light for the North

Today was the Funeral of Brother Silas, the Pastor in Oxford house. He was an essential Pillar in the church and community. The positive influence his life had on others, and especially after he was saved, was quite visible by the well attended Funeral. Quite a few people flew in, some as far as Calgary(maybe even further). It was a blessed funeral, with messages geared towards the attendees that the time is now to become a child of God, and that it is the only way to meet loved ones that went Home to the Lord. As sad as it is when loved ones pass away, it was a celebration of his Life, with hopeful view to meet again.

Today was wake service in Thompson for Silas.

We are thankful to visit Margaret in Split Lake after she spent 15 days at the doctors in Winnipeg. The encouraging word was today out of Romans 8,32-39 God keeps His promise to keep us in His hands. Our desire as born again Christians it is, to draw nearer to God and get a closer relationship with Him. Jesus Christ, who died for our sins, is the power within us to overcome all evil. Walter, Margarete’s son lately participates more active in our bible studies and prayers. 🙏

Our dear brother went home to be with the Lord. 🙏

Update on Silas. He is still breathing, but deteriorating very fast now. Mary is all the time by his side, and is relying on God's Word as her strength and comfort in this difficult time. 🙏

Update on Silas. As of this morning he is still fighting lifes final battle. Please continue to pray for him, and his loved ones.
