Stand with Martha's Family ♥️

It is with the heaviest heart that we share our beautiful mother, Martha Suyapa, has sadly passed away. On Friday, May 3, 2024 she made her transition to be with the Lord.

She was diagnosed with Stage 4 Terminal Cancer in January of 2024 and she fought an extremely hard battle; one that you can imagine was filled with unbelievable pain and sadness.

After prayer and consideration, we have decided to put this GoFundMe together to provide some additional support for our loving father. He has continued to work tirelessly throughout these past 5 months to support his wife and 4 daughters, all while still raising our youngest sister of 10 years. As of late , the past 2 months , he’s had to completely stop working in order to be at our mother’s side completely. Although the lord has provided and blessed us abundantly, this has brought forth some financial hardship.

Our goal is to raise funds to help with the expenses during this difficult time and ease any financial burden, so the focus can be on supporting our dad raising our 10 year old sister.

We would appreciate any donation you are able to make, and thank you for your continued strength and support! God bless you all.

In the midst of it all, there were special moments that we will hold near and dear to our hearts forever. Through her biggest trial and heartache, we saw our mom worship the Lord. In confusion and tears, the Lord remained her comfort, strength, and joy.

Our faith is what it is because of our mom. She taught us to love the Lord, be devoted to his word, and be steadfast in prayer. All of this we have seen her do her whole life for us and countless others, and even till the very end.We now find comfort in that same faith she taught us to make our own.

We know our mom touched many lives, and were devastated to have to break this news to those of you she was blessed enough to connect with. She was well-loved and will be deeply missed by many. Especially her family.Thank you to everyone who poured love into our mother. And a special thank you to those who allowed her to pour love into you. It was her favorite thing to do for others , we are forever grateful for the impact you made on her life.

We ask that as our family seeks comfort in the Lord during this hard time, that you keep us in your prayers also.

In true Martha fashion , we’d love to share the following bible verse with you :

“And now, dear brothers and sisters, we want you to know what will happen to the believers who have died so you will not grieve like people who have no hope. For since we believe that Jesus died and was raised to life again, we also believe that when Jesus returns, God will bring back with him the believers who have died. We tell you this directly from the Lord: We who are still living when the Lord returns will not meet him ahead of those who have died. For the Lord himself will come down from heaven with a commanding shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet call of God. First, the believers who have died will rise from their graves. Then, together with them, we who are still alive and remain on the earth will be caught up in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. Then we will be with the Lord forever. So encourage each other with these words.”

- 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
