We are in prayer for the family of Rev. Fr. Edwin M. Sager who was in a serious comatose. Today, September 6, 2016, after days of battling, he went home to be with the Lord. He was good friend and brother in the vineyard.
Father Edwin, we know that you are too young to leave in this world but God saw you getting tired and a cure was not be. So He put His arms around you and whispered “come to me”. With tearful eyes we watched you and saw you pass away. Although we love you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, hardworking hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us He only takes the best.
