On behalf of Ady and the ExCo team, please pray for the repose of the soul of Helen Plocha, wife of our past president, Ed Plocha.  While Helen has been a cancer survivor for some time, she developed some significant health complications during the past week and died the evening of Friday August 26 of multi-system organ failure.  Ed and Helen's children had been at her bedside these past few days.  In Ady's words, may Helen experience the loving embrace of our God.  She is experiencing God's peace and love.  Please ask your communities to pray for Helen, Ed, and Helen's children.  As we know more details of funeral arrangements etc we will pass them on.  May Helen rest in peace.  Your ExCo team
