Dear Elaschuk Families: I am sorry that I am unable to attend Phyllis' funeral. I have many fond memories of her and Wilfred. I always enjoyed the visits at Springside and the Home. I'd like to share a scripture passage from the Common English Bible in Ephesians 2: "God is rich in mercy. He brought us to life with Christ while we were dead as a result of those things that we did wrong. He did this because of the great love that he has for us. You are saved by God's grace! And God raised us up and seated us in the heavens with Christ Jesus. God did this to show future generations the greatness of his grace by the goodness that God has shown us in Christ Jesus. You are saved by God's grace because of your faith. This salvation is God's gift. It's not something you possessed. It's not something you did that you can be proud of. Instead, we are God's accomplishment, created in Christ Jesus to do good things. God planned for these good things to be the way that we live our lives." The future looks bright! Stay rooted and connected! Your friend, Albert
