[ESF] FW: Announcement: Colin Smith Memorial Service - June 28, 2008 - 6:00 PM - Details below

[Gary L. Folz]

Brethren .

 

The following email was sent to the ESFRBC and thus I am sending it out to
you.

 

Dr. Colin Smith is a dear brother in the LORD and in his passing, we can be
assured of the words of our Lord when He says,  "Precious in the sight of
the LORD is the death of his saints."  Psalm 116:15  He will surely be
missed but we will look forward to seeing him again in heaven.

 

We will be in prayer for his family as well.

 

NO TEARS PAST THE GATE

Someone new has entered 
our eternal home above.
The heavenly gate has opened wide
to welcome the one you love.
We cannot help the tears that fall-
our hearts need time to grieve
when earthly life has ended
and a loved one has to leave.
Yet even in the saddest time, 
we know our Savior lives,
and we can trust completely
in the promise that he gives.
That in a glad reunion with the Lord,
our loved ones wait
to welcome us in joy
with no more tears
beyond the gate!

Dear ones in Christ,

As many of you may know by now, Dr. Colin Smith passed into the presence of
the Lord yesterday (Sunday, June 22, 2008).  Colin was widely known,
appreciated and loved by those who knew him or benefited from his ministry.
He leaves a legacy for Christ in the lives he ministered to and will be
sorely missed.  Please remember Anita and their 5 married children and 8
grandchildren during this challenging time.

Announcement:

I have been asked by the Smith family to pass this important announcement
along to the ESF.  It may be freely shared with others.

A memorial service for Colin Smith will be held this Saturday, June 28, 2008
at 6:00 PM and will be followed by a time of Fellowship.

It will be held at the Newton Recreation Center, 1814 Newton Ransom Blvd.,
Clarks Summit, PA 18411.  (570) 586-7808
