Please extend our sympathies to Bob on the passing of his mother from the office staff at Covenant United Methodist Church.

Bob, we are sorry to learn of the loss of your mom.  With sympathy, and prayers for comfort and peace, from the staff at First United Methodist Church

Our family knew "Ms. Alice" from church many years ago at ACTS….we visited her at her King Street apartment and enjoyed talking with her, and hearing her stories and her testimony of God’s faithfulness.

Then, several years later after losing track of where she was, we reconnected again and came to visit at Conestoga View.  My three children enjoyed singing with her and seeing her cards and pictures.

Alice had such a sweet spirit and a beautiful heart.  I loved seeing her smile!  We will miss you Alice but we’re so thankful that you’re with Jesus now!!!!

Bob, I have not seen you for many years. Hope you will be comforted by my praise of the sweet Mother you had. Thank God she did her best for you.
A friend from ACTS Covenant Fellowship
