Burying Ben
"They went to a remote region where people needed medical help and the Gospel of Christ," said the Rev. Chris Bitterman, a family friend and the assistant pastor at their church, Meadowview Reformed Presbyterian Church in Lexington. "And they took both."
That sacrifice is heavy on the hearts of the people now raising money to help the missionary family come home to bury one of their sons.

My heart goes out to this family for thier great loss. The passion to serve and share the Good News of Jesus Christ has often throughout history impelled Christians to put themselves at risk. I'm sure the Entwistles knew this, but it still must be very hard to bear the grief of such a loss. But, God IS faithful, and He WILL see them though this time, and bring good out of sorrow and loss. This is His redeeming way, and the ultiimate victory of Jesus Christ in the lives of His people.

My the Entwistle family know of the presence of the the Divine one during their time of grief. May their loss be comforted knowing that this son has now reached what the remainder of humanity still awaits; Paradise.
Shalom
