I was deeply prompted by the valuable and good presence of our brothers and sisters who have departed us, in an untimely manner, to write a short biography about each one of them. I apologize for not being able to obtain photos for all.

In Peace They Rest

  May their soul continue to rest in the glory of God in Heaven till we meet again. Death has no one particular place nor one particular time for mortal beings who are born to return to dust. But it leaves those who are alive with grief and sorrow of missing their loved ones. Thanks brother Kimo for compiling this report for honourable memory of Collo deceased in North America. Thanks for your concern for Collo in North America

  Words of Encouragement

  Thanks to bro John Ajing kimo, for the report you have done for remembering of our brothers and sister whom we loss couple of years ago. May God rest their soul in eternal life? Paul in the Bible noted that God revealed details about what happens after death to encourage and comfort us, to give us hope in times of personal loss, that we not "sorrow as others who have no hope" (1 Thessalonians 4:13). God's promise of eternal life is certain; we can safely trust in it as long as we are faithful to Him. Paul also spoke of his confidence in the "hope of eternal life which God, who cannot lie, promised before time began" (Titus 1:2).
  When a family member or friend dies, there is no denying the sense of loneliness and emptiness and the feeling of unfinished business—that we should have said or done more. Gaining a more—complete understanding of death and life can help us face our own mortality. We find courage, comfort and hope by viewing life in a larger context. We realize that, just as our present existence is temporary, so is death. A time is coming when we will reunite with those who have died and renew our relationships.
  Although adjusting to the loss and loneliness caused by death takes time, we need to remember that even this most extreme experience does not separate us or our loved ones from God's plan or His love: "For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, . . . nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Romans 8:38-39).
