Our dear friend Emily and her three young daughters have experienced an unimaginable loss with the sudden passing of their beloved Charley - husband, father, protector and provider.

As they navigate the days, months, and years ahead, we hope to surround them with love, support, and practical help. While nothing can ease the heartbreak of losing a spouse and parent, we can help relieve some of the financial burdens that often accompany such a profound loss.

The funds raised will help provide stability and security for the family as they adjust to life without their husband, father, protector, and provider. Most importantly, this fundraiser is a way for our community to show that they are not alone and that they are deeply loved.

If you are able, please consider contributing. If not, your prayers, kind messages, and support are equally appreciated.

Emily is asking specifically for prayers of protection over her daughters and for God's strength in her to have and do the things that Charley did so well as a parent leading with kindness, gentleness, patience, joy — that God would bring these fruits to the surface and help her to use them to lead and love them well.

Thank you for helping us care for this beautiful family during this difficult time.
