Dear followers, our father Roy Mellor died suddenly on the 20th May after a massive cardiac arrest at his home (triggered by a blood clot). He had been diagnosed with an aggressive brain tumour just weeks before he died. We are devastated and heartbroken by his loss. 1/3
Yet we draw comfort from knowing he is safe with his saviour, home at last. He cared faithfully, sacrificially and tenderly for our mother who suffers from Alzheimers and is now in a home. Whilst our pain is great, we know that the Lord is giving Dad the rest he so needs. 2/3
“I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, Who loved me and gave Himself up for me.”
Galatians 2:20
I/we at Briarwood are Praying for our sister Church in Nashville, Covenant Presbyterian and Covenant School in light of this tragic evil. Specifically, praying for the pastors and leadership as they minister to their congregation and the surrounding community.
