[Ohio-Talk] Prayers Needed

[Suzanne Turner]

Thank you Cheryl. 

Revern Bowie was a supporter of the Cleveland Chapter and the congregation funded many of our events locally and by state as well.

The Church even put the bulletin in Braille for us, provided a platform to celebrate White Cane Awareness Day, invited Sam Gleese to minister during a Sunday morning service and  distributed NFB literature to newly blind church members; just to name a few of his wonderful contributions to the blind and others.

He will be missed!

Suzanne

Please send healing prayers and virtual hugs   to William Turner,
Suzanne Turner, Wilbert Turner amd their Families to acknowledge the passing of their Pastor.

The Renown Reverend Doctor A. Charles Bowie  Pastor Emeritus of the

Historical East Mount Zion Baptist Church

Pastor Bowie was well known for vigorously delivering uplifting and
encouraging  sermons and   sharing the message of hope and deliverance
 to his congregation and others around the country. Rev. Bowie held the blind community in high regard and was a friend to the Cleveland chapter.

While we will not hear his melodious majestic voice  sing another song  or share the Gospel, we will remember with fondness how he  stirred the hearts of many, comforted us during our time of grief, and demonstrated faith to the faithless.

Today we the National federation of the Blind join the East Mount Zion family during their time of sorrow to say farewell and well done to a faithful servant.
Let the lyrics below bring you solace during this time of profound grief.

“Until We Meet Again”
Lyrics written by, Jeremiah Rankin  in 1880

1 God be with you till we meet again,
By His counsels guide, uphold you,
With His sheep securely fold you,
God be with you till we meet again.
Till we meet, till we meet,
Till we meet at Jesus’ feet;
Till we meet, till we meet,
God be with you till we meet again.
2 God be with you till we meet again,
’Neath His wings protecting hide you,
Daily manna still divide you,
God be with you till we meet again.
Till we meet, till we meet,
Till we meet at Jesus’ feet;
Till we meet, till we meet,
God be with you till we meet again.
3 God be with you till we meet again,
When life’s perils thick confound you,
Put His arms unfailing round you,
God be with you till we meet again.
Till we meet, till we meet,
Till we meet at Jesus’ feet;
Till we meet, till we meet,
God be with you till we meet again.
4 God be with you till we meet again,
Keep love’s banner floating o’er you,
Smite death’s threatening wave before you, God be with you till we meet again.
Till we meet, till we meet,
Till we meet at Jesus’ feet;
Till we meet, till we meet,
God be with you till we meet again.
Amen.
