A Dear Lady Joins the Lord in Heaven


This week we said goodbye to a dear friend, Patricia Carlson. She was one of the ladies from First Baptist Church in Hibbing who made quilts for our moms and babies. Pat was also the mother of our MWC Board Treasurer, Diane Eliason. Pat was a believer in Jesus Christ whose walk with the Lord really modeled grace and unconditional love to all who knew her. The picture above is of Pat and one of our clients with her new baby on a day when Pat got to personally deliver one of the quilts the ladies made for us. The following verses remind me of Pat. We will miss Pat’s sweet smile and her hugs, but we know she is with the Lord.

A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.” John 13:34-35 (NKJV)
