We are truly humbled and thankful at the outpouring of love and support we have received from you, our extended church family. In the days since our precious Austin was called home, we have felt God’s grace through your prayers, and we have been comforted by your words of encouragement. The Lord has used you to lift us up and to make our heavy burden a bit lighter. It is evident that when one part of the body hurts, the entire body hurts. We still hurt, however we are able to confess that God’s amazing grace has sustained us, and we have faith that it will continue to sustain us in the days, weeks and months ahead. We ask that you continue to pray for us as God calls us to continue our earthly sojourn without our son. Love in Christ, Russ & Karisa, Bradyn, Calvin and Gracie Lotterman. “Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee. Trust ye in the Lord for ever: for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength.” Isaiah 26:3-4
