Praying for comfort and peace for the family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Our deepest condolences to Rev., Jesse, and first lady Sister Williams on the loss of your daughter. May Yahweh comfort you with the peace that he promised in John 14: 26. Made the family and all those who loved her be comfortable with the comfort that only the Holy Spirit gives.
Sometimes there are no words to say but” Oh My God”.This is one of those times.
God Bless each of you. May He hold you in His strong arms of love.Hold on and don’t let
go of His love.
