Emme Grace Forbes

Dear Friends,
The Lord has taken Emme to be with Him. She passed away about 1:45 pm today Sunday. We of course do not know any funeral details at this time. Please continue to uphold the Forbes family, Pastor Mark who has to prepare for the funeral now, and our entire church family in your prayers.
Our hearts are heavy with grief but we are so thankful to have gotten the chance to know this precious child. For those of you who do not know, Emme was adopted only a year ago from China. We do not know what higher purpose this might have held but we do know this:
Emme has had a wonderful year. She was able to experience a loving christian family which she had never known in China. She was able to have a mommy, a daddy, and two wonderful brothers. But most importantly she was able to hear the gospel. I realize her knowledge is limited at age 3; but just to be able hear the name of God spoken, to hear of our Savior Jesus Christ....all of this impossible in the orphanage in China!!! Just think of the power that is in just the name of our Sovereign Lord!!! We praise You, Lord for your work in Emme's life.
I will of course post any details when I find them out. Jenn
