Does Jesus care when I have said goodbye to the dearest on earth to me,
And my sad heart aches, till it nearly breaks,
Is this aught to him. Does He see?
O yes, He cares, I know He cares,
His heart is touched with my grief;
When the days are weary,
The long nights dreary,
I know my Saviour cares (He cares)
Abel Choongo was ready for his graduation tomorrow Friday 22nd May, family and friends were prepared to celebrate with him. 25th May was supposed to be his 23rd birthday but today, we gathered with heavy hearts to bid farewell to him . He was a beloved friend, brother, son, and a second father to his siblings.
To his friends, Abel was known as βBig Manβ a cheerful, friendly soul who welcomed everyone he came across with warmth and kindness. At church, many fondly knew him as βCongo Soldier,β a name that reflected his vibrant spirit and presence among his peers.
Abel passed away on 18th May and was laid to rest today 21st May at Mutumbi Cemetery. Though his life was cut short, the memories, love, and impact he shared with those around him will forever remain in our hearts.
Surely when the roll is called up yonder we shall meet again.ππππ
