The Loss of a Dear Friend

Chance has been has been experiencing some big changes
during his time across the pond.

Right after Christmas, his dear friend Robbie died.
Robbie was a member of the church from England that Chance
got to know and love. Robbie and his wife have secured a big space in Chance's
heart and he has cherished his time with them.

Robbie was sick when Chance met him and they knew he didn't
have much time left to live.
Chance was able to spend some of the holidays with Robbie and his wife as well
as sharing yummy food and activities with them 
and people who were interested in the church.


Here is what Chance wrote about the loss of Robbie:


He always had a smile on his face whenever I saw him and I immediately would smile because it was just so contagious. He loved having me over and I enjoyed being with him every second I was with him.
Just recently, Robbie passed away. I miss his smile and the excitement he would have every time we talked about motorcycles and country music. He is a friend that will be missed not only by me, but all others who were influenced by him and his smile.


There are many people who have gone through similar circumstances of losing a loved one in their life, whether that be a friend, a grandparent, or a member of their immediate family. These people have many questions that often go through their minds. Such as:


1. Will I see them again?


2. Where do people go when they die?


3. Is our life on Earth the only thing there is and then we're gone?


The amazing thing is, there are answers to these questions. They come from something called the Plan of Salvation, otherwise known as the Plan of Happiness, which is God's Plan. From the Plan of Salvation we learn where we come from, why we are here, and where we go. We also receive answers to many other questions like "Will I see my loved one again?"


The truth is, we do go somewhere after we die. A place called the Spirit World where we learn more about Jesus Christ and his Gospel. It is in this place that we will be able to see our loved ones again.


It is my testimony that I know we will see our family members and others again after this life. We will have the opportunity to see those that we miss so dearly. I know that all of this is possible because of our savior Jesus Christ. God loves each one of us and wants us each to receive of this knowledge of the Plan of Salvation.


I invite you to learn more about the Plan of Salvation. If you already know about it, study it more. If you are new to this knowledge, please send me a message and I will be happy to help answer any of your questions and provide more information about this Plan of Happiness.
