A Prayer for Our Deceased Brother... 
 
Almighty Father, eternal God, hear our prayers for Your son, Bro. Roswell whom You have called from this life to Yourself.
 
Grant him light, happiness, and peace.  Let him pass in safety through the gates of death, and live forever with all Your saints in the light You promised to Abraham and to all his descendants in faith.
 
Guard him from all harm and on that great day of resurrection and reward raise him up with all Your saints. Pardon his sins and give him eternal life in Your kingdom.
 
We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

 
Our Brother has been called home...
The passing of
the Honorable Brother Roswell O. Sutton,

Greetings!
The Honorable Bro. Roswell O. SuttonIt is with a heavy heavy heart that I bring the news to you of the passing of our very own, the Honorable Brother Roswell O. Sutton.   We learned just a short time ago that he was called home to our Lord at 5 PM EST, Today.
 
Although he served in many different capacities within our Wondrous Band, Bro. Sutton is most remembered for serving as our 17th International President from 1960 - 1962.
 
As more details are received, we will update you via the International Mailings.  Please keep Mrs Sutton and the Sutton Family in your prayers.  "March on, March on ye Mighty Host nor think the journey done.  Nor of the future deeds to boast til we the victory won..."  We can proclaim that the Victory of Bro. Sutton has been won!  He leaves this world to live in Glory with the Lord forever more.
 
Fraternally yours,
 
Bro. Jimmy Hammock
International President
