Dearest First United Methodist Church Family,
It is with deepest sadness I inform you that our faithful and loving servant (my neighbor), F.D. Glenn, caught the train this morning at 11:20 a.m. and has returned to his heavenly home. F.D.’s Lord and Savior has summoned him home today, August 9, 2020.
Services are pending. I will inform you as soon as information is available.
Let us give thanks to God for the life of F.D. and the time we were privileged to know him. We are grateful and blessed to have known F.D. and his faithfulness to his family, friends, community, and the church.
Please keep Carol and family in your prayers.
“When the storms of life are raging, stand by me. When the world is tossing me, like a ship upon the sea, thou who rules wind and water, stand by me.”
Surely, the gates of heaven has been open to our church these last couple of months. But we give thanks that our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, stands by us during this storm. We give thanks to God for every breath that we take and the people who are around us.
“Be still and know that I am God.” Psalm 46:10.
Peace and Love!
