Death in the Midst of Nurturing: Preaching on John 14, Mourning Virtually: A Sermon

Carol Allen, member of my faith community passed from death to life eternal last week

Grace,

And

Peace to you,

My sisters, brothers

And

Siblings

In

Christ,

In

Faith

In love

In

Human kindness

(pause)

In these uncertain times,

Where it has become difficult

To gather as people of faith,

Physically

And love one another

Comforting one another,

Sharing God’s peace

And shouldering one another’s burdens,

Especially,

When our community

Is one less

Today

Because we are one less a life

One less light

(pause)

It is in these times,

We all need the reminder

Regardless,
