Loss of Lowery Lang
Funeral for church member Lowery Lang on Friday, Sept 29
Lowery Lang began attending New Life after meeting members of our church at a cook-out for Treadaway Kids when his step-son was in that program many years ago. Although he has suffered many health problems, he always had a positive attitude and smiling face as he greeted members and visitors to Sunday morning services. He suffered a stroke last week and another stroke Wednesday morning. Lowery will be missed.
