On behalf of St. Paul’s Board of Deacons we extend our sympathy to the family of Lorraine Linnemeier. It was an honor to visit, serve Holy Communion and pray the prayers of the Church with her. The following taken from Holy Scripture: “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. For as we share abundantly in Christ’s sufferings, so through Christ we share abundantly in comfort too.” 2 Cor. 1:3-5
