Day 209: One More Angel

Today has been a very hard day. During our Phi Lamb pre-rush tea party, we discovered that our sister and chaplain, Amy, passed away this morning. It broke all of our hearts. She was the most encouraging person you would ever meet. We are so thankful that she was in our lives for this brief time, but now she is dancing joyfully with the Lord. I am especially thankful for our community and sisterhood that has been so supportive and comforting. Here are just a few of the things that were shared in our community today.

Rest in Peace Amy, we will see you soon!



"Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me. My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am." John 14:1

Although we mourn the death of our beloved sister in Christ, we rejoice because she is in His presence and has heard the greatest words one could ever hear: "Well done, good and faithful servant."

You say: "I can't figure things out" but God says: I will direct your steps (Prov 3:5-6)
You say: "I feel all alone" but God says: I will never leave you or forsake you (Heb 13:5)
You say: "I'm anxious" but God says: Cast all your cares on ME (I Peter 5:7)
We are grieving, but we know that God's plan is bigger than ours.


"And I tell you all of this so that you may have peace in me. Here in this world you will have many trials and sorrows, but take heart for I have overcome the world." John 16:33


"Weeping may last through the night, but Joy comes in the morning."

You Hold Me Now

Earth has lost a wonderful woman, but heaven has gained an Angel.
