It is with profound sadness that I tell you that at 5:45 this evening, Minnie Roche claimed the promise of her baptism and now rests in the mercy of our Lord. She was surrounded by family including many great-grandchildren. We will miss Minnie very much here at Faith.
For I am about to create new heavens
and a new earth;
the former things shall not be remembered
or come to mind.
But be glad and rejoice forever
in what I am creating;
for I am about to create Jerusalem as a joy,
and its people as a delight.
I will rejoice in Jerusalem,
and delight in my people;
no more shall the sound of weeping be heard in it,
or the cry of distress.
Isaiah 65:17-19
