FAMILY MEETING
Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!
Dear Mum:
Little did we know, as I left Ncho-Njeh, last December, that will be our last meeting. Mafua will only later exclaim from Dschang, "your cook is gone!", as we grieve together over the phone, you gone too soon.
Oh Dear, say us well to Mbo and Asaatong, gone before you, until we too join you folks down yonder.
"Eshua Nkem-a-nteh" (as you fondly called me!)

For Jesus taught that someday “all those in the memorial tombs” will be resurrected. John 5:28
Isaiah 25:8: He will actually swallow up death forever, and the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will certainly wipe the tears from all faces. And the reproach of his people he will take away from all the earth, for Jehovah himself has spoken [it].
Revelation 21: 3, 4: " With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his peoples. And God himself will be with them. 4 And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”

WHEN A LOVED ONE DIES
Have you lost a loved one in death? The pain, the grief, and the feelings of helplessness can seem unbearable. At such times, we need to go to God’s Word for comfort. (2 Corinthians 1:3, 4) The Bible helps us to understand how Jehovah and Jesus feel about death. Jesus, who perfectly reflected his Father, knew the pain of losing someone in death. (John 14:9) When he was in Jerusalem, Jesus used to visit Lazarus and his sisters, Mary and Martha, who lived in the nearby town of Bethany. They became close friends. The Bible says: “Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.” (John 11:5) Though, Lazarus died. How did Jesus feel about losing his friend? The account tells us that Jesus joined Lazarus’ relatives and friends as they grieved over this loss. Seeing them, Jesus was deeply moved. He “groaned in the spirit and became troubled.” Then, the account says, “Jesus gave way to tears.” (John 11:33, 35) Did Jesus’ grief mean that he had no hope? Not at all. In fact, Jesus knew that something wonderful was about to happen. (John 11:3, 4) Still, he felt the pain and sorrow that death brings. In a way, Jesus’ grief is encouraging to us. It teaches us that Jesus and his Father, Jehovah, hate death. But Jehovah God is able to fight and overcome that enemy! Let us see what God enabled Jesus to do.

Sesekou MbeTazi,
It is very hard to take this inevitable pill. But remember that everyone will one day do the same.
Now it is your family's turn as we all stand beside you for encouragements and in prayers for the almighty to take her to the best place reserved for her until we will all meet again in his kingdom.
Please accept my family's heartfelt condolences.
Our Lord God is in control.
May the soul of our dear mom rest in perfect peace.....Amen!
