Book of Remembrance

During this challenging time of isolation, many of us have lost loved ones, not just to Covid-19 but to other causes too. Because of restrictions we are unable to express our grief in the usual ways. Perhaps we weren’t able to attend a funeral, or gather with loved ones to comfort each other, or to access belongings or photos of our loved ones that may help with processing our grief.

I lost my Mom at the end of March to Covid-19. A friend also lost her Mum to the virus a couple of weeks later. I suspect there are many loved ones and friends known to those in our churches and communities across the North-West who have passed on at this time. This Book of Remembrance is a place to simply record their names, recognize their lives and their passing, and encourage all across the Association to pray for the families and friends of those listed here.

I will update this book once a week. Anyone across our region is welcome to submit a name to be included, whether or not the loved one was in the North West. If you would like someone to be included, please email me at remembrance@nwba.org.uk In your grief and your loss may you know the amazing peace of the Prince of peace.
