On April 28th Laurie Whitt of Maple Grove died after a 12 year battle with breast cancer. Laurie was a member of our congregation, a woman with a very strong faith in Christ. She was heavily involved in the Race for a Cure, an annual fundraising walk to benefit the Sue Komen Foundation for breast cancer research.
Laurie's husband Mike and daughter, Michelle and Ashley, gathered with hundreds of friends and other family members for her funeral held May 5. In the service we thanked God for her life and the huge difference she made in the fight against breast cancer.
I thank God for her life and pray that God's comforting Spirit will be at work with her family, friends, and all of us who will miss her in the years ahead.
Peace,
Pastor Durk
