May you find peace and strenght in the words of Psalm 23:4 "Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me." My prayers and thoughts are with the family during these difficult days continue to hold on to God's strong and powerful hands. I thank God for allowing me to know and share such beautiful/glorious time at the Senior Citizen Center in Jarratt, Va.with Sis. Givens. Be strong in Christ Jesus! Elizabeth Parker (Evangelist)
