For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens (2 Cor. 5:1).
Words may seem empty at this time which is why we pray.

Although we know our loved ones are in a better place, it still doesn’t take away the hurt of them no longer being with us. The human part of us still hurts because we will no longer see them in the flesh. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Pastor Vistine, I pray for God’s comfort for you and your family. It is great to know that your Mom is healed and no longer suffering. She can’t wait to be reunited with you and the family at Jesus feet some day!

To all of the Vistines and other family members.
We go a way back and so remember so many times of fellowship with your family,
In that little Church on the corner of Adams St, There has been so much time that has went under our bridges, but it is so easy to see your mom praising and worshiping God.
I know what a relief and sense of pride to know where she is today,
I can just see her as she enter Heaven’s Gate and Dovie walked over to her and said WELCOME HOME
May GOD Bless all of you

“The Broken Chain”
We knew little that morning that God was going to call your name. In life we loved you dearly and in death we do the same. It broke our hearts to loose you,you did not go alone,for part of us went with you,the day God called you home. You left us peaceful memories,your love is still our guide; and though we can not see you, you are always at our side. Our family chain is broken and nothing seems the same; but as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again!!!!!!
May GOD give you peace in your hearts in knowing you will be reunited again !!!
You are all in my thoughts and prayers!!!!!

Just as the sun will set then rise with each and every dawn,
The soul’s of those who lived life well eternally live on…
Now that the sun has seemed to set on one so very dear,
Please know a soul who lived so well remains forever near.
Thinking of you…

Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire family. We have heard Pastor speak about his mother and her obedience to the Lord and how she raised her children in the path of the Lord. We pray this brings the family comfort, that she is with our Lord and Savior. Martha & Darrell Ash

I so enjoyed the video and what a precious lady your mom was. I have many fond memories of her when your family was in Lorenzo. She also drove our bus for many years and loved her dearly. Although she is in a much better place know how hard it is for her not to be here with you all.
