Thelma Braun

It was a grand event whenever we were fortunate to have Aunt Thelma play the piano at evening devotions at the C & MA hostel on Avenue de L’eglise in Leopoldville. She played with joy, passion, and flair. She inspired people with her music and I shall never forget it. Love, Bassel Fares, classmate of Philip

Aunt Thelma will be dearly missed but she is with uncle willys and phillipe now.I'am sure there was a great family reuion in heaven this week. you are in our prayers.

I was saddened to hear of your mom's passing. What an impression she and your dad made to me in Kinshasa.. I remember going to their house for devotions and prayer meeting. I believe phillipe was one or two years behind me. What a blessing they have been and I have always followed their travels through one of their class mates Helen Ost. The Lord comfort you at this time. David Polley [email protected]

Chris, Paul and family,
Our Lord called your folks, Uncle Willys and Aunt Thelma to a great work in Congo and elsewhere. I have been blessed thru knowing them and you, also. We will always be bound together as the Congo family which is part of the Family of God. Words cannot express, but prayers can. Love forever, Dan [for my folks Martha & Leon, also]

Chris, Paul and families.Aunt Thelma was a special person.Im so glad that Brooke and I were able to see her just weeks ago. May God grant you peace as you go through this time.

Our Godly friend, who we've know for 47 years,has gone to be with her Lord and to meet Willys. As neighbors on Ave. de L'Avenir in Congo, to our correspondant and leader of Evangelism Resources, we found her to be Christ-like, kind and an energetic worker in God's kingdom. We'll miss her (jottings). Love, James and June Clark, Baptist missionaries/ Congo

My prayers & thoughts will be with your family. You were a wonderful person & will be greatly missed my anyone who ever knew you.

Someone once wrote that, "The flow of ministry is complete when God;s heart touches your heart and your heart touches the hearts of others". God did indeed touch her heart and she let it flow right to ours. Blessings upon her and hers!

God has used Thelma and her late husband Willys, more than any other persons, to impact my life for Jesus Christ and His Great Commission. She will certainly be missed by many throughout the world now but, because of God's calling on her life and her faithfulness, millions know Christ and are rejoicing with her in heaven. What a life she lived!
