Please continue to uplift prayers for the family of Rev. Thornhill.

On behalf of our Presiding Elder, Rev. Kenneth Taylor, and the Edisto District, we extend our deepest sympathy to the Thornhill family on the passing of Rev. Brenda Thornhill.

Rev. Thornhill was a devoted servant of God whose life touched so many through her faith, compassion, and dedication to ministry. Her gentle guidance, unwavering commitment, and heartfelt love for the people of the Edisto District leave a legacy that will be remembered and cherished.

May you find comfort in knowing that her labor of love was not in vain and that she has heard the words we all hope to hear one day: “Well done, thy good and faithful servant.”

Our prayers, love, and support surround you during this time of sorrow.

*We will continue to provide updates regarding funeral and memorial arrangements as they become available.

**🕯️ Second Sunday of Advent – Peace 🕊️**

Today we light the candle of Peace, it’s a gentle reminder that even in a busy, noisy world, God’s peace is still available to us.
Peace isn’t just the absence of chaos; it’s the calming presence of faith, hope, and trust in His promises.

As we continue this Advent journey, may our hearts be still, our spirits be lifted, and our lives reflect the peace that Christ brings. 💜✨
