We will be there in memory of my father, Thomas Dowling, who passed away 5 years ago under the loving care of our staff at the Unit in Cabot. I still need some great volunteers to help with set up, registration, and race course assistance. Please call if you would like to join in to run, walk, or volunteer! Volunteers get a free race t-shirt :)

The two words we hear over and over again at Concordia are Faith and Caring, and we are blessed to have such an amazing Chaplaincy staff to embody both!

If you reach out and ask for help, you never have to feel alone. Grant and Pastor Roger have both said prayers for me as a staff member there, and I have brought Grant a cup of coffee whenever he visitied Madaline just to make him feel “at home” when he visited. It was always nice to have him visit–he made us all smile.. There are people all over Concordia for help and support. This is one of the blessings about being “in community” like at Concordia. It lessens our loneliness and gives us the comfort of fellowship together. Life is not perfect for anyone, but we have each other, and Christ, for support.

Thank you for your reply. I was touched by what you said. We know we can find comfort in God because he is a suffering God. The cross reminds us of that. It assures you that he is with you in the suffering you are described in your note to me. It’s strange that the cross, such a painful instrument of torture and death, could be a source of comfort for us but it can when we remember what God did for us there. Your remain in my prayers.

Blessings in Christ always,
Pastor Roger Nuerge

Walborn Thu, 09 Aug 2012 14:00:53 +0000 http://www.concordialm.org/blog/?p=1047#comment-10596 I got up at 2:30 A.M. unable to sleep./ With Madaline in the Lund Assisted Living it raises so many questions. After 67 years of marriage it’s so difficult to realized that she’ll never be able to reside with me again. I appreciated Pastor Rogers article on comfort, Thank you so much. As a retired Pastor I need it.
