Thank you family and friends

Friends and Family,

We don't know how to thank you all enough for the love and support you have all shown us. We are heartbroken for the loss of our precious son, Jonah, and we will miss him until we are reunited in heaven. However, we have a hope that does not disappoint and we know we will see him again. This has been the hardest time in our lives, but God has taught us so much about His love and we are so thankful that He gave us Jonah for those wonderful five months. This may seem like crazy talk to some, but then again so is the gospel: "For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God." 1 Corinthians 1:8. We believe Jonah was sent to us for a purpose and we believe that purpose is ultimately so that more people come to know Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior. Isaiah 53:6 and Romans 5:8-10: "But God comendeth His love towards us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him. For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life." Thank you all again for loving us and for loving our son, Jonah. We pray we can be used by God to bless you in the future as much as you have all blessed us. 2 Corinthians 5:15

Phil. 1:3
In Him, Scott and Amy Goodman
