Weeping for ourselves
but rejoicing for Jonatan David Torres who is now singing in his Savior’s
presence...
Today we say a
brief “Good night!” We will see him and rejoice together forever on That
Eternal Morning!

The grieving
process is difficult. And the ongoing nature of it often takes me by surprise, actually...
We are thankful,
as extended family, for you who take a moment to let us know that you not only
pause to remember but also to pray – and to let us know that you’re remembering
and praying! We appreciate you!
Just this past
April 21, one of Jona’s classmates wrote to me:
I wanted to let
you know I was praying for your family yesterday. I first heard of Make-A-Wish
when Jona was sick, and yesterday I became officially certified to be a Wish
Granter. I had a chance to tell a little bit of Jona’s story and what a
blessing your family has been, and I wanted to share with you the incredible
impact Jona continues to have on my life.
We are thankful beyond
words for comforting words like these and, above all, for our Loving Shepherd
who faithfully leads us in righteous paths – for his own Name’s sake!
