    To The Family of Bishop George A. Ware, Sr. and New Life Tabernacle Ministries

    “Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many mansions: I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go to prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.” St. John 14:1-3.

    On behalf of myself and the Glory Evangelistic Ministries Church Family here in Bexley, Ohio, we do hereby humbly offer and extend to you our deepest and most heartfelt sympathies on the loss of your greatly lamented Husband, Father, Pastor, Brother, and Friend, Bishop George A. Ware Sr.

    It is in times of great grief and despair that the precious Love of Christ always abounds. The word of the Lord reminds us in Psalms 29:11., that “The Lord will give strength unto His people: The Lord will bless His people with Peace.” And because the Lord is our Shepherd, we know that He will graciously give strength and guidance during this difficult time granting you His peace and His mercy. May our Sovereign Lord comfort you, and know most assuredly that you will continually be in our prayers. God Bless you.

    With deepest Sympathy,

    1 Thessalonians 4:14-17 For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep. For this we declare to you by a word from the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord.
