Lily, words can’t begin to express how much we are going to miss you. In such a short time, you have become one of the brightest lights in our lives.
You have always embodied the truth that the joy of the Lord is your strength. Even through adversity, hardship, and difficult seasons, your joy has remained unwavering. Thank you for being such a beautiful example of faith. Thank you for being a leader. Thank you for being a friend. Thank you for always showing up for people, for loving so intentionally, and for making others smile simply because of the joy you carry. You have a way of walking into every room with the desire to bring warmth, peace, and light. Your reverence for the Lord and the way you live for Him have been such a beautiful testimony to everyone around you.
But this isn’t goodbye, it’s simply see you later.
When the Lord brings people together, it’s never by accident. He crossed our paths for a purpose: to encourage one another, to love one another, to comfort one another, to strengthen one another, and to stand beside each other in every season. We believe those kinds of friendships are eternal. Know that you will always be our sister and always be our friend. We love you deeply, and you’ll always have a home here whenever you come back to visit.
Until we meet again, may the Lord continue to guide your steps, bless your journey, and use you mightily for His kingdom. We can’t wait to see all that He has in store for you.
(Ps the slides in the sanctuary are us listening to a message God gave Olu & Lily . There will be more to come!)
