Three Young Gals Lost a Mother


Three young souls lost a dear mother. It was so hard. She had cancer and died just a few days ago. This week I attended two funerals; one in my home and this one about 120 miles from home.

The family are dear friends to me for a long time. It was so disheartening for them to lose their mother. Sometimes if one has to choose who makes a home, we usually quickly say it is a mother.

Pray for Edit, Memo and Faith as they think through these hard times. Their father is willing to play the two roles of mother and father but you can imagine how enormous the challenge is. Anyone with advice for him? Please pray for Him to face the challenge of raising them as a single parent. It is indeed hard for him.

I was so touched with this today. Though as leaders we attend funerals, this one touched my heart.

  1. It is very sad to lose another from the community, especially one who leaves behind a few daughters. I will pray for the father and for the children. God bless you for your heart.
