A Dear Friend

Please pray for the family of Merlin Yoder. His family said good-bye to him last night after long hours of waiting to see if his body would respond from the injuries he received after being caught in his combine Friday.

We'll miss this dear man of God tremendously. One who needed to study, learn, grow in Christ always. A man who would read books while setting his tractor on auto-steer. A man of integrity and compassion, locally and globally. A man whose love for his wife just bubbled out of him. A man who did not waste his life. We love you and miss you, Merlin. So glad you are with Jesus.

    Just got your message. We had not heard the latest on Merlin. Yes, he is with Jesus - where we all long to go. We will see him again!!!!!!
    It will be hard, but be blessed today. :)
