Oh Lord, help the families during this time of great loss. Oh Lord, we weep at this news report. We pray for the congregations of these two men of God. God bless the memory of Rev. Layton and Rev. Mart. In Jesus name we pray, Amen!
This is another reminder for us all, you and me may be called home today. Are you ready? Heaven is a prepared place, are you prepared for Heaven?
