A Note From The Whittaker Family #2 - Missionaries to Haiti

Susana finished her race on 02/11/11 at 12:15 PM

February 11, 2011

Susana Raquel Whittaker is now in the presence of our great and glorious God.  She ran her race.  She ran well.  We held her hand and led her into the arms of Jesus.  Our hearts groan like never before.  But we rejoice in our God who loves us so much and has brought our little girl into heaven where she now sees Him face to face.  Soon, my beloved Susana, and very soon, we too are going to see the King.

Homecoming Celebration for Susana!!!

February 11, 2011

We will have a Homecoming Celebration for our sweet Susana on Monday Feb. 14th at 2:00 PM at Biltmore Baptist Church.  35 Clayton Rd.  Arden, NC.  Nearest regional airport is Asheville.  Nearest international airport is Charlotte, NC or Greenville-Spartanburg, SC.

This will be a wonderful time for us to celebrate her life, faith, and legacy that she will leave with so many of us.  We invite you all to come and share this time with us.  We will celebrate the goodness of our God that He has loved us so much that He purchased a place in heaven for us, and that is where our beautiful little girl is right now and will be forever.  Therefore, we will rejoice.

DO NOT WEAR BLACK!!!!  DO NOT BRING FLOWERS

We will have a time to mourn, for but a moment, because that is what it will be like compared to all the rejoicing we will do in eternity.  So, this truly will be a homecoming celebration…for our little girl has finished the race and is now enjoying her prize…Jesus.

Instead of flowers or gifts, we are asking for a donation to be made to our ministry so that we can continue sharing the love of Jesus with the orphans and poor of Haiti.  Susana loved being in Haiti and talked all the time about the day that we would be able to return.  Your giving will be an honor knowing that this is what Susana would want more than flowers or gifts.  The information for giving is on our website at www.howcantheyhear.org

Thank you all for the prayers and support.  By the grace of God, we will press on and continue reaching towards our prize and heavenly reward.  And now our longing becomes even greater knowing that we will also be reunited with our precious little girl.
