To Zoeann, Kevin and Family:

I would like to extend my sincere sympathy to you and your family regarding your Grandfather's passing.

Know that your grandfather now resides in heavenly realms of a new existence with God and his Son Jesus Christ. Know that his death is not a goodbye but you'll see him again when you one day take part in the ressurrection and inherit eternal life also.Because you lived according to the way and will of God and his Son Jesus Christ.

(John 5:25-27)Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and NOW is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God; and they that hear shall live. For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself; and hath given him authority to execute judgement also, because he is the Son of man.

May the grace, peace, love and comfort of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, be with you all .

Affectionately,
Rev. Alma Caples-Bliss
