We want to invite you to a Celebration of Life for Rev. Dr. Sadiri Joy Tira, on the morning of Saturday, April 25.

Over the past year, he has been in and out of the hospital, with extended stays since October due to infection and organ complications. On April 11, he was re-admitted and, at one point, was unresponsive and placed on comfort care in anticipation of his imminent passing.

After being prayed for and released by our family, he unexpectedly woke up, alert and talking. Since then, his care has been reclassified, and he is currently stable, though the infection and the source of the infection remains unknown. While we are grateful for this time, we know his passing is likely sooner than later. We are planning this celebration of life with or without him present, and would love for you to join us.

More information will follow, with more details and ways to be involved.

Thank you for your love and prayers.
