Honoring a Life of Faithful Service and Lasting Impact

A service attended in memory of ያረጋል ተገኝ.

In our community, we encounter individuals who live to serve others, both in faith and daily life. Today, we come together to honor an exceptional member of our church who embodied this spirit of service until his last days. His deep commitment to God and the community has left a lasting impact on everyone who had the privilege of knowing him.

As we reflect on his life, we feel the weight of his absence—a presence that brought warmth, encouragement, and wisdom to our church family. Yet, in our sorrow, we also find comfort in the legacy he leaves behind: a life filled with meaningful connections, tireless efforts, and a heart always open to serve.

As we remember our beloved brother in faith, let us carry forward the passions and ideals he cherished. He lived with steadfast devotion to God and this community. As a congregation, we honor his memory through the way we live—by extending kindness, lifting one another up, and standing with those in need.

May his legacy inspire us to serve wholeheartedly, to love without hesitation, and to value the unity of our shared faith. As we continue our journey, may we strive to live as he did—with grace, purpose, and an enduring commitment to others.
