I still remember Mary as a shining light of the love of Yeshua. What an amazing soul winner. She is precious in God's eyes and in ours as well. She's worshiping God and probably serving there in Heaven.

Mom, it is now been 13 days since you left this earth. Dad, Missy, & I miss you dearly. Knowing that you are not in pain and you made it to your home In heaven gives us relief. We will forever cherish all the good memories that we've had with you on this earth. Until we meet again, just wanted to tell you that I love you.

Mary, I will miss all your cute little notes you'd leave me. I am so grateful for having you in my life. It was so amazing to have you at our wedding. I am glad you finally got to see your son so happy and in love and married to his soul mate. I promise to always love and take care of Jim and his dad. You were like a mom to me in many ways, you were full of so much love and taught me so many things. Thank you for always having time to listen when I needed to talk. I am comforted in knowing you are no longer in pain, you put up a good fight but in the end it was time for you to leave us and go home to Heaven. It's going to be hard not hearing your voice or laughter in the house, but I always remember you telling me not to be sad when you leave because you will be in a glorious place with the lord. Thank you for everything, I will never forget you.
I will always love you, Mary.
Love,
Melissa Jarnecke

Mary you are in Yeshua's glory but you will be so missed here.!you were such a beautiful light with us at Hope of Israel Congregation. You single handedly seemed to coordinate and transform every feast event and Shabbat meal into a wonderful celebration. You never failed to bless me and our family with beautiful cards and generous gifts . There are so many new believers that will have you to thank for inviting them to know Yeshua. You will be so missed! We love you and hope to join you someday in His Presence. Love from your friends at Hope of Israel Congregation.

The Lord Is My Shepherd

A Psalm of David.

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside still waters.
He restores my soul.
He leads me in paths of righteousness
for his name's sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies;
you anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
all the days of my life,
and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord
Forever
Mom,
I love you endlessly
You are in my heart...and I will miss you terribly..
