Pastor Scott told us last night about what happened. We were all crushed and we mourn with you. We will continue in prayer and intercession as you grieve. Your family has been such a blessing to our body. Thanks for all you do for the Kingdom.
Eph. 3:16-21 came to mind and I’m praying it for you.
Dear Cliff ,Christie, and family,
Yesterday during service, Pastor Joe told us the sad news of your precious LaLa. I am keeping you and your family in prayer and know that Jesus is giving you the peace that passes all understanding and know that everyone’s prayers are keeping your arms lifted high and you are being made strong and fit to continue the battle in total victory. We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us.
God Bless you,

Cliff, Christie – we just heard last night that Lauren went to heaven. Words cannot express how sorry we are for the loss of her here on the earth. What you must be going through is somthing we cannot even imagine. Like everyone has said – the hope that we have in Christ is everything to us – thank our Lord that she is with Him, and that He will get you through this. I looked again at how beautiful she is in her pics on your website of your vacation. loved the video that you did of Cliff and the girls. Tori is growing and so cute spinning and dancing.
CLIFF AND CHRISTY,
Our hearts and prayers are with you always. Thank you for the impact you have made in our lives. As we have grown closer we tell people that you are our family. Being so far away is sad, but there is no distance in the spirit so remember we are praying and lifting you all up. That morning when I heard the news and for days to come God just kept giving me the song from Natalie
Grant, “I’m in better hands now”, we know she is and that we will see her soon. Remember God is still God and our Heavnly Father and loves you all and her even more than the fatherly love you have. His arms will keep her safe and happy forever and comfort you all until we are all together with Him. We love you all, call if there is anyting you need. Love Eric and Melinda
Cliff & Christie,
There is nothing we can say that hasn’t already been said. We just want you to know that our hearts are with you. What a beautiful little girl she was. We just can’t imagine the pain, but the Healer will do His job, that we know.
We love you guys,
Ted & Georgie Nelson
I just wanted to let you know that I am thinking and praying for you at this time I can not imagine want you are going through, but God is there for you at this time carrying you through and you will get through it because you can do all things through Christ who strengthens you!!! Hang in there God has got amazing things ahead of you. LaLa is looking down from the grand stands of heaven cheering you on to do all that God has set before you, keep running the race! I love you Helenxxx
I am so very sorry for all you are going through right now. Please know that I am praying for you and my heart is broken for you. If you need me for anything, call me. I am here for you, if you need anything. All my prayers, Cindy.
Cliff, where do I begin. It has been 16 or 17 years since we last spoke. I am truly sorry for the loss of your baby girl. I can’t even begin to understand the pain you two must be going through, but I know we serve an awesome God whose comfort and care for your family is more than anything any of us can do or say. When I first learned of your loss, I was reminded of the story of King David and when he fervently prayed for the life of his child. When his child died he said something extraordianry. He said the reason he got up and kept moving on was because of the comfort of knowing that one day he would see him again. I know that you and Christie have that hope. Our prayers are with you in the days to come. May God richly bless you and keep each of you in the grip of His grace.
Wow, got the e-mail while I was sitting in a meeting – my mind was gone from the importance of anything this life could offer. I think anything I could say has already been said. We love you guys and our prayers are with you. Please let us know if there is ANYTHING we can do.
Our hearts are with you and words cannot express how deeply we feel for you guys. We rest in the knowledge that Lauren is in the full presence of our incredible God and we’ll all be united again in the future. Rev 21:4-7.
We love you and are here for you,
Tako, Jen, Daniel, Justin & Josh
I am so sorry for the home-going of your daughter. You are such an awesome family. I am praying for you guys. You know I always like to see you when you’re in town.
Love,
Tom
PS – From my mom: The Bible says that Jesus came to heal the broken hearted and to bind up their wounds. She prays that your broken hearts are healed. She was very touched by the video and pictures. My parents love you guys too.
Hi big sis. I am very sorry for your loss. I love you a lot. God is with you all everywhere you go. God Bless you and I will pray for you all. We love you and cant wait to see you.
I’ve received both of your messages, but the calls that I try to make to your phone are not going through. If we could keep correspondence until I find a way to contact you by phone, that would be great. My family loves you all so much and I definitely look forward to seeing you again!
Hi Cliff & Christie!
Cliff, it was awesome to see you at Campmeeting last night! Christie, sorry we missed seeing you and Tori but should the opportunity open up, it would be awesome to meet up with you while you’re in Tulsa! We love you all and it was so encouraging to hear the testimonies from Cliff about what God has continued to work through you guy’s while ministering to the youth in Europe. You are in our prayers!! Keep going strong! Your labor is NOT in vain!! 🙂 With love – Andy & Rachel
Evangelist Cliff,
Glory and Hallelujah Too,
I had a thot. watching magnum PI with my mom during supper after talking to you. There is something we need at my Church and that is a very outstanding youth group. I had started something last winter after Dean,Jeff and Tymen and my self built a hockey rink out here. Sundays after Church the Youth came out and we played. Then they usually came over for Supper and we would play some more or watch a Christian movie. I was thinking Friday nights we could start something up at Church. My house is set up to be a very fun house but it is also very exotic and beautiful and I don’t want them to trash it as well. My basement has Pool , Fooseball, bubble Hockey or Soccer, and ping pong, and a Hockey / Soccer Arena.
My Sister Carolin would get after the youth on the ice to be filled with the Holy Ghost talking to them in the Hockey Rink Shack. At my house sitting on the quad, snowmobile four of them got filled with the Holy Ghost and then the other brother also came on board and got filled as well.
Summer is a bit tuff to keep up with them although I invite them to come on vacation with me to the states. We spent a month in Branson, Missouri playing on Table Rock Lake water Skiing, Wakeboarding, and Seadooing. They did come and visit me at my cabin at Sylvan Lake near Edmonton in The Pentecaostal Camp where I have a Cabin and my Brother Dean as well.
There are some other youth coming to Church as well. Truly our Church needs a youth and young adults program. Maybe The Lord has some Apostolic Work that can be done here for the Youth At Living Word Christian Center. My family grew up with the youth group coming to our house every saturday during the summer to play baseball and in winter playing broomball on the ice in our back field. Now a lot of the young kids are put into public hockey teams and have big commitments there.
Brother Cliff this was something that came to my mind tonight knowing a bit of your athletic background. I am praying for God’s Plans, Purposes, and Pursuits to be revealed to us all and you folks would be filled with the Knowledge of His will in all Wisdom and Understanding that God’s Great plans would be accomplished in this time. The Blessing is on you, Glory and Hallelujah Too, Tim Sabo
