Attention Canaanites,
Please see the message below.

“The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit” (Psalms 34:18). This verse reassures us that God is present in our grief, offering healing and support during moments of deep sorrow. Yesterday, the “Most High God “ decided to call our beloved brother, Verdell “ Ronnie” Jones home. What a wonderful display of love and compassion that was extended by our LORD. Though the family mourns the separation from our dear loved one, we trust God’s decision. He always knows what’s best even when our blinded eyes can not see. We are confident that Verdell made peace with his maker, and for that, we are truly thankful. On behalf of the Jones family, we would like to thank all of you for your prayers and support, and solicit your continued prayers as we navigate through this most difficult process. May Yeshua richly bless you all.
Cordially,
Pastor Lonnie C. Jones
