[Faith-Talk] Recording of Blind Christians Group Annual Meeting

[Ericka]

Thank you, Chris! Between medical issues and losing a lot of family members the past couple of years, email has just not been a priority. So now I am finally going through. My condolences to you losing your grandparent. We lost my grandfather a week before Christmas last year. we still have not been able to do a service at the cemetery to bury him but at least in February we had the funeral. Also, last year we lost my grandmother just before Day. And a lot of other relatives in between. I am tired of going to funerals, but I know that they are in a better place . 

Can you send me information o off-line about what’s been going on so I’m more up to speed? I’d rather just delete emails then read 500 of them or whatever it’s on here. Thank you and you’re in my prayers.

Ericka Nelson
