The day our world changed
As we approach this one year anniversary, I can't deny that we have relived the tragic moments of Nicole's struggle to fight for her life.
Over those 21 days we reached out to all our family, friends and clergy. We asked for many prayers, but what we received was much more than that.
We received countless blessings of God's love through relationships new and old. Many of you were on our prayer chain that stretched across the world, while our journey of faith took many twists and turns.
Countless times our faith tested,but through it all, we remained and continue to remain faithful to God's plan.
Over this last year, our human hearts continue to struggle, while our spiritual hearts continue to grow.
As this day can not be avoided,we will embrace it with quiet peaceful prayer, reflection on the beautiful life we were able to share,with an Angel that walked among us. Please allow this time to bring you to a peaceful calm trusting in God's grace and mercy.
Our Father in heaven holds our loved ones within his heart and reminds us that eternal life is our goal.
Recall your devotions,reflect on how Nicole has changed your life. Allow the God who consoled us then,console us now, and in the days to come.
Cherish your life,your families and friends,for we know not when the hour is at hand to be called home. For this reason alone we must remain with our sites on heaven and do God's work while we are here on earth.
Please continue to pray for us as we in turn have kept all of you in our daily prayers of thanksgiving.
Eternal Father thank you for the gift of Nicole's life and all she taught us to bring our hearts closer to yours, may we remain ever faithful, for without your love, this life is impossible but with your love all things are possible.
