OUR CARING COMMUNITY
We hold in our hearts this week Gerry and Michelle Perkus, as Gerry receives at-home hospice care, Francis and Kay Fuselier as they support Francis’s mother Mabel in Louisiana, and the Spears family as both Mark and his mother Jane recover from an injury, and surgery, respectively.
We also mourn with many in our congregation this week: Bart Chaney and his family as they grieve for Bart's mother who recently died, Hillary Shaw and her children grieving husband and father Brian who died Jan. 1, and Cyndi Daman whose father Frank died in Florida on Jan. 8.
