Ben Williamson Funeral
As almost everyone in our congregation knows, Chris Williamson’s Dad, Ben Williamson, has been fighting a weakened heart. And just in the past few weeks his heart has improved, but recently his kidneys and liver failed. This afternoon at 3 pm he died.
Chris and Julie want to thank everyone who has prayed for them and encouraged them during this difficult season. Chris quoted the verse that says “we do not grieve as those who have no hope” twice to me today. A mixture of joy and sorrow is a good description for how he is handling this valley. Without the hope of the resurrection, our hope would be in vain. But the resurrection will come and our hope is not foolishness.
The funeral plans are set. Visitation hours are Wednesday October 14 from 9 to 11 AM. And the funeral will start at 11 AM.
Both the visitation and funeral will take place at First Christian Church in Champaign. Their website is: http://www.fcc-online.org/
