Joined the family, the faithfuls of AIPCA led by Bishop George Mwandime and residents of Nyonjoro We gathered, with heavy hearts to lay Lucy Mumbi Mwitugi .
I convey my deepest, most heartfelt condolences to the family, friends, and everyone affected by the passing of our beloved mother.
There is no loss quite like the loss of a mother. A mother is the first home we ever know. She is the foundational pillar of the family, a counselor and the silent anchor that holds the home together.
When a matriarch rests, the void left behind is immense and shakes the very core of the household and the community at large.
To the children and the immediate family: I know the world feels entirely different today.
Your mother’s love, her warmth, and her sacrifices are stitched into who you are. I see her spirit, her discipline, and her kindness living on through you. You made her proud, and that is a legacy that death can never take away.
I recognize that Lucy was not just a mother to her household, but a mother to our community. Her generosity, her wisdom, and her welcoming heart left an indelible mark on everyone she interacted with. Whether it was through her active involvement in the church, her support for community initiatives, or simply her gentle words of guidance to the youth, she built a better society. Our ward has lost a guiding light.
The Holy Scriptures remind us in Ecclesiastes 7:2 that it is better to go to a house of mourning than to a house of feasting, for death is the destiny of everyone, and the living should take this to heart.
While we mourn, we also choose to celebrate a life beautifully lived, a life dedicated to service, love and family.To the family, please know that you are not alone in this dark hour.
The people of the church and community stand with you in prayer and solidarity. We will walk with you through this painful journey of grief.
May the Almighty God grant this family the peace that surpasses all human understanding.
May He give you the strength and fortitude to bear this immense loss.
May Mama’s soul rest in eternal peace.
