Rev. Jonathan P. Strand

Dear Strand Family,
I am sorry to hear for your loss. My prayers are with you.

My sister has always spoke very highly of your sermons. Also kept me informed of your sons illness. My sympathy goes to you and your family in the personal loss of your son. My utmost adoration goes to you in your example of faith and love in God.

Dear Strand Family,
I am a friend of the Glotz family and had been praying for Jon. I just wanted you to know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your whole family right now. I will continue to pray for all of you. I felt as though I knew Jon from what Bill and Dorene had told me about him. He will truly be missed. I pray God will comfort you now. I hope to meet you sometime. Very Sincerely, Sena Ekberg

Rev.Strand and Connie, We never had the pleasure of knowing Jonathan, but we know just how you feel, we too lost our daughter Deby (age 44) 6 years ago and she too was laid out at Colonial. We lived in Tinley Park most of our lives and now live in Dowagiac, Michigan. We just wanted to say you are in our prayers and our thoughts. Jack and Carol Hayes, Dowagiac, Mich

Dear Pastor, Connie, and Josh,

John was a remarkable individual who always had a smile on his face. To many he always was full of life and didn't let be sick stop him from speaking and healing others with the words of the Lord. He touched so many lifes and made so many accomplishments while on this earth. May my thoughts and prayers be with you during this time.

May God's Grace be upon the soul of Jonathan. As a fellow Christian, I am grateful for your honor, service, and unselfishness in serving our Lord. May the healing of family and friends be brief and strengthened from your life efforts.

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.

Dear Pastor Paul, Connie, and Josh,
The first time I hear Jon give a sermon, we closed our eyes and thought he sounded just like his dad! It was true - he had a sensitivity about him that was very special, and, he will truly be missed.
Heaven's Gain is Our Loss - A New Pastor has joined Heaven to continue his work there.
Bless You Always, Pastor Jon.
