A Humble Thank you....

Peace Borthers and Sisters...

First and foremost, please know how blessed we are to count ourselves part of this community we have. There is simply nothing we can write to adequately express our deep feelings of gratitude for the kindness and compassion you have shown to our family since my Dad passed away and the sincere effort you've shown to be with us in the 9 Days Novena prayer for him.

It is literally impossible to quantify and properly thank you for all of the prayers you have prayed, the meals you have delivered, the words of comfort you have offered, the thoughtful tributes you have conveyed, and the kind expressions of sympathy you have provided to us. The monies you have shared were ample assistance as we have sent it to my family in the Philippines.

We hope you will understand how our family has found comfort in the unique and continuous ways so many of you have expressed your concern for us. While our sorrow has indeed been stretched, we have felt God's tender love and embrace directly through you and your faithful kindness. As you continue to care for us and share your condolences, we are reminded of and comforted by the fact that my Dad has a bountiful of people praying for him as he await the gates of heaven.

We also would like to inform you that thru your prayers, our baby, Caiden Luke, has been cleared of his gastro-kidney problems after several tests in Westmead Children's hospital and would no longer need to continue the medicines//antibiotics he has been taking since he was born. The Lord may also be praised for showing negative results for Sis Joy who has undergone breast ultrasound after complaining to a strange lump and painful numbness in her breast area.

Once again, Sis Joy and our children sincerely appreciates your kindness most especially to Bro. Ganni and Sis Flery, whose guiding force and untiring service truly reflects the christian leadership that is needed during these trying and uncertain times in our community. We ask that God to continue to give them and all of us the strength to walk by faith.

We found solace in God's loving mercy and are truly humbled by your kindness and presence during the Novena prayers.

In faith and may God be always praised...

Lorvic and Joy Osorio
