Dear friends,

We have received the very sad news that Amanda Hofmeyr passed away last night. A beautiful soul who bore her illness with grace and dignity. Our deepest sympathy and condolences go to Ed and the rest of the family at this time. May God bring you comfort and peace. “There’s one more angel in heaven”.

Please could the community keep Ed and the family in their prayers.

God bless

Hello,

It is with great sadness that I have to advise that Keith Bailey’s wife Isabelle, passed on Sunday 6 June. Keith is the current Community Spiritual Director for Protea Emmaus.  I chatted to Keith this morning and he is finding comfort in the fact that Isabelle is with our Lord and Saviour, but it will no doubt still be a very difficult time for him and their family.

Blessings to all.

Protea Emmaus Community Lay Director

Hello Community,

Firstly can I ask that we don’t all try and contact Alda she will keep in contact with us. Please pray for the following – Dave has cut off the finger of his small finger on his right hand. Alda is racing to a plastic surgeon in Jhb.

1.        Please pray for their safety in the traffic
2        Please pray that they can save the finger, David says its a small piece.
3.        It is very painful please pray for a pain free journey.

God Bless

An update on Grace Valashiya is that the operation was successful and she has been discharged from hospital. Praise God for His undertaking and thank you to all the community members for your prayers.

God Bless
