Zelealem Teshome

Dear Friends:
Zelalem's family and friends would like to express their heartfelt gratitude for all your generous contributions and support.  We are saddened to just learn that Zelalem lost his battle to cancer and was called home to his Creator yesterday.  He was surrounded by his brothers and sister when he took his last breath in Addis Ababa.
I am thus closing the website and donation will not be collected anymore.  Again, his family and friends truly appreciate your rallying arround Zelalem to provide him and his family the support they needed during this difficult time
Please keep Zelalem and his family in your prayers.  May he rest in eternal peace and may God comfort his family.
Your power brings us to birth,
Your providance guides our lives,
and by Your command we return to dust

Lord, those who die still live in Your presence,
their lives change but do not end.
I pray in hope for Zelalem, my family, relatives and friends,
and for all the dead known to you alone.

In company with Christ,
Who died and now lives,
may they rejoice in your kingdom,
Where all our tears are wiped away.
Unite us together again in one family,
to sing Your praise forever and ever.

"He will wipe every tears from their eyes.  There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away"  Revelation 21:4

Amen
