Just a moment of silence…
We were notified of a loss of one of our sailors. The family has already been notified.
We would like to offer our prayers, along with those of a grateful nation, for the great sacrifice this sailor from our PIR group made in service to his country.
The Bible says "Blessed are they that mourn, for they shall be comforted." I believe that God will shed his blessings on them at this time. These are times when our Faith is tested the most, and yet it is Faith that will see us all through the sorrow and agony of this tragedy.
I know that faith will keep this family strong. Please know that the prayers of so many people are with them. I hope the family finds some solace in knowing that their loss is shared so deeply.
I pray that God gives them the grace to carry on. The family can be proud of their sailor and the ultimate service to this country.
Hang in there Matilda!
Maybe today will be the day for our calls. If patiences is a virtue then I must be one heckuva virtuous person (not by choice) ….. breathe in breathe out.
Have a great day, folks.
