2012 Necrology Report
Seattle Presbytery
“Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight and the sin that clings so closely, and let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus the pioneer and perfecter of our faith...” Hebrews 12:1-2a
Together, we give thanks for the ministry and fellowship of the church's faithful servants who were reunited with their Creator this past year:
