Help Bring Richard Jacobs Jr. Home

Donation protected

Our family just had to fly to and from Baltimore, Maryland to lay my husband's big sister/mom to rest. Today, I received news that my baby brother passed away on Saturday. I am reaching out to you on behalf of the memory of my baby brother, Richard Jacobs Jr. My brother struggled with drug addiction and schizophrenia. He died on a sidewalk in Las Vegas, cold and alone. I tried helping him overcome his addiction as I did for the past 21 years. We survived many battles but I never gave up on him. I know right now he is clothed in his right mind seated at the right hand of Jesus. I stood on the word and prayed him through suicide on more than one occasion. Our story is of neglect, rejection, rebellion, and abuse, which sometimes turns into self-abuse. It is very disheartening because he was clean for a couple of weeks during this last Resurrection Sunday, and I was hoping he would stay the course. But alas, the course is over. I know he was saved but not delivered. Unfortunately, my mother and sister cannot help me, and he did not have a life insurance policy. I am raising funds to have him cremated and for airfare to bring my mother from Florida to California for closure. Faith speaks, and God's word says you have not because you ask not. So I am asking the God of more than enough to show up. If there is a chance to bring healing and unity to our family through my brother's death, I am willing to leap out on faith. Normally, I wouldn't ask for financial support. But I also believe that what you make happen for others, God makes happen for you. Anything you can give will be received with a humble heart, and I touch and agree that what you plant will bring forth a manifested harvest in souls and for your family in Jesus' mighty name. Amen.
