Rev. Mitchell & family in times like these words seems inadequate. We are fully aware that a great Bond has been temporary separated but Thanks be unto God we can find Comfort in the words Apostle Paul left on record, for when we are absent from our bodies we are at home with the Lord. Pastor Mitchell I can imagine you've been remenesing the many wonderful times you and Mrs. Mitchell shared along this journey. Be of good courage because you know that God is faithful & He surely will not ask us to bear what we cannot bear? Although the burden is heavy, Rest assure that God will Help you to bear it. Prayerfully you and the family can find Comfort in these words, our condolences and prayers are with you in your time of bereavement.
