St. Andrews Presbyterian Church

St. Andrews has lost one of our dearest saints.  Virginia Berridge, mother of church member Bill Berridge, died at 3:40am this morning, May 10 2010, at Orchard Creek in Traverse City.  Kyle and I spent yesterday afternoon with Virginia and her family, and she asked me to please send her love to the St. Andrews family, and to let everyone know how much she appreciated their friendship and prayer.  She was a woman of great faith who trusted in God’s grace and was ready to join “the great company of the saints of light.”  I will miss Virginia, her smiles and laughter and wonderful sense of humor.  The Berridge family plans to hold a Memorial Service at St. Andrews at the end of August.  Details TBA.  Cards of sympathy can be mailed to Bill at 6324 Lakewood Road, Beulah MI 49617.       Rev.
