The Wall of Remembrance
The Vision: We all have stories to share about the impact that the COVID-19 has had on us, our families, friends and colleagues. More so, we all have stories to share on a loved one, a family member, a friend, or a colleague that we have lost as a result of the pandemic. We would like to erect a Wall of Remembrance to dedicate to those we have lost through COVID-19, as well as to those that we have lost through illnesses, accidents, natural causes or any other cause. This Wall of Remembrance will always belong to us all. It will always be a reminder to us of the gift and blessing that our loved ones who have passed on have been to us.
In John 6:39, Jesus tells us that: “and this is the will of God, that I should not lose even one of all those He has given me, but that I should raise them up at the last day”.
“Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his faithful servants.”
Psalm 116:15

“Neither death nor life will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord”.
Romans 8:38-39
A New Heaven and a New Earth
21 Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,”[a] for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. 2 I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. 4 ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’[b] or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”
