Dear Joe, Faye Jordan, and Family,
I am writing to express to you my heartfelt condolences and prayers of comfort to you and your family for the passing of your beloved Mother, Geneva Jordan. Our hearts and prayers go out to you and your family during what must be the most trying of times.
I believe the loss of one’s mother is by far one of the hardest of life’s events. No matter how old we are, losing a mother is one of the deepest sorrows a heart can know. But her goodness, her caring, and her wisdom live on, like a legacy of love that will always be with you. I lost my own mother and I remember how I grieved. Celebrating her life is a beautiful way to honor her. I want you to know that my thoughts are with you. We join in with everyone who knew your mother in praying your peace and comfort in this very difficult time.
The Bible says “Blessed are they that mourn for they shall be comforted.” I pray you will find peace and comfort in these words and that God will give you the strength and courage now and in the days ahead. May the love of family and friends carry you through your mourning. Even in the days ahead, we’re still here for you—even if you just need someone to listen.
On behalf of myself, First Lady and your LifeChanger family at New Life in Christ Interdenominational Church, please know you and your loved ones are in our thoughts and prayers. The connection to your church family is more important than ever before; remain connected. If there is anything we can do, please do not hesitate to ask.
With the utmost sincerity,
Bishop Geoffrey V. Dudley, Sr., Ph.D., D.Min
Senior Pastor
