Kelly Pensabene's Husband and Best Friend

Today I lost my best friend, my husband. He went home to our Lord. He suffered greatly for the last nine months without one word of complaint. He offered all his pain to The Lord with a smile. He will be remembered as a true soldier for Christ. Even though my heart is broken I have faith in The Lord and I will be restored. He died peacefully in my arms. He suffers no more. Matthew was loved by many and I know you are all hurting. I pray the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit be with you all and bring you the peace that passes all understanding.

Matthew Pensabene - Promoted to Glory!

Loved ones, I just received word from Lt. Kelly that Lt. Matthew Pensabene has passed away in the past half hour. Kelly informed me that Matthew died peacefully, without pain, with both herself and Phillip by his side. Details will be forth coming regarding services and other matters will be coming forth in due time. I thought you should know this as soon as possible. Thank you for all your love and support to the family and to Matthew. Matthew couldn't thank everyone enough for all that his been done on his and Kelly's behalf. At this time please refrain from calling Kelly. Emails and facebook encouragements would be greatly appreciated. Aloha. John Chamness, Major

THQ Bulletin

Description Prayer for Mom's Healing - Stroke Submitted by Sherry Hammers Details Please uplift my Mother, Laurie Soltis, in prayer. She's had many health problems since her major heart attack quite a few years ago and made it through all the trials and tribulations that can frustrate one when they are ill and yet, so very full of life. Mom's major worry...was always a stroke. Thank goodness she is in excellent hands at Bridgeport (CT) Hospital, where they saved her life when she had the heart attack, so all records are there and she is known, and has a comfort level. I and my boyfriend, Carlo (her "2nd son") briefly spoke with her yesterday, but she still cannot speak beyond long, drawn out "hard to understand" words or sentences she is trying to communicate. It was hard not to let her hear our tears. She is having another MRI this morning to ensure there is no blood on her brain. My mom is a very caring and loving person and I appreciate, as she and my whole family will if you keep her in your prayers for a speedy recovery from this terrible health blow. Thank you so much.

Captains Halversons

Shane gave the sermon (regarding Thomas' doubts and our doubts/ title: How to survive your doubts / 3 keys: Trust Jesus' unfailing love, trust in God's presence, and trust in His strength/power). There are many things (events) coming up in their schedules, including running our Divisional Summer camps. Please Pray for wisdom and guidance as they tackle these important ministry opportunities! May God lead the Way!
