DELMER
LIPELT’S ENTRANCE INTO GLORY – We pray for peace
and comfort for the family of Delmer Lipelt whom God called home on July 5,
2013. We pray that God would comfort all
who mourn with the hope of the glorious resurrection of the body and a happy
reunion in heaven, and that He would sustain the family with the knowledge that
all who remain faithful will be given the crown of eternal life and will be in
our Lord’s presence forevermore. Delmer’s
