A church in China's eastern coastal Jiangsu Province held the sixth memorial service of this year for a deceased believer.
Senior Pastor Qiu Cheng of Jinsha Church in Tongzhou District, Nantong City, preached a sermon with the title "Thinking About the Meaning and Value of Life" on October 12, encouraging the deceased’s family members to respect and pursue the faith of their loved one, to learn the fine virtues of the believer, and to believe in Christ. He stated that the departed had gone to a wonderful place and that they could meet and live together with him or her as long as they believed in the Lord.
“The memorial service is not only a good opportunity to preach the Gospel, but also a reminder to those who live to cherish each day to live well for the Lord and make a beautiful testimony for Him in society,” said the church.
Nearly 70 people attended the service that day.
