“Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.” (James 1:27)
I wrote briefly yesterday about the tragic death of a young man, the son of friends and (until very recently) neighbors, who leaves behind a family of seven, including a newborn.
It’s an unspeakably sad story.
Here’s a chance to help:

Even a very small donation would be of value. If you’re at all inclined to contribute something, please don’t imagine that even your dollar or your five dollars would be insignificant.
The effort is closing in on its goal of $7000, but any amount beyond the sum needed to pay funeral expenses will assist a large young family and a struggling, young, suddenly-widowed mother — and they’ll be coping with this tragedy for a very long time.
Thank you.
