Our condolences to the Family of Alice Dillaway, a member of the Young Family of the Boston Society of the New Jerusalem, Swedenborgian. May we take consolation in Alice's Swedenborgian faith that one "is so created that the inner person cannot die; for one is capable of believing in God, and thus of being conjoined to God by faith and love, and to be conjoined to God is to live to eternity." Rev. G. Steven Ellis, Senior Pastor, Boston Society of the New Jerusalem
