<\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>It was with great sadness that I heard that my dear friend Mollie \u201cNorthern\u201d Pearman had died while visiting her family in Australia. Mollie was a pillar of Holy Rood church and a wonderful supporter of Mustard Seed Songs. She came to every concert and production – was first to buy our CDs and DVDs and would always post lovely comments on social media as to how much she enjoyed what we were doing.<br \/>\nHer funeral was held in Australia but there was a memorial service for her at Holy Rood church. The Curate, Colin Prestidge summed up Mollie very well when he prayed:<br \/>\nWe thank You gracious Father for Mollie\u2019s colourful and vibrant personality which brought much joy to those around her, for her warm friendship and care of others and for her clear thinking and straight talking approach which enabled her to \u201cwin through\u201d and \u201cget the job done\u201d even when times were difficult and life was challenging. We thank you dear Lord for Mollie\u2019s strong faith, her unwavering commitment to You for all that she contributed to the Friday morning Bible study group and for her servant heart and selfless love, which always put others before herself.<br \/>\nThe featured video of \u201cYou raise me up\u201d was played at Mollie\u2019s memorial service. It was one of her favourite songs and I feel it is particularly appropriate as Mollie did indeed \u201craise up\u201d all those that she met.<br \/>\nAll at Mustard Seeds send our deepest sympathy to Mollie\u2019s family – we will all miss her very much indeed.<\/p>\n<p>Quote of the week:<br \/>\nNothing is more embarrassing as watching someone do something that you said could not be done<br \/>\nSam Ewing in The Word for Today<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was with great sadness that I heard that my dear friend Mollie \u201cNorthern\u201d Pearman had died while visiting her family in Australia.
