As a tribute to Memorial week, we are remembering the members of Wesley Chapel who have died since last Memorial Day. We remember Chris Attwood. Chris was born January 1, 1964 and loved that the whole world celebrated her birthday with her. Chris had a daughter, Sara, a granddaughter, and two great-grandchildren. She worked at Sellersburg Stone most of her career. Chris joined Wesley Chapel in 2012 and attended the Wednesday Women’s Bible Study. In 2013, she was told her cancer had come back and she was given two years to live, and she responded, “Last time I turned to alcohol, this time I’m turning to God.” She went to the Holy Land and was baptized in the Jordan River. She fought bravely, living eleven years after her diagnosis. Chris died in November, 2024, at the age of 60. Chris put her faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, believed that Jesus died on the cross for our sins, and believed in the resurrection. Jesus promises us that he is preparing a place for each of us and that when it is time, he will come and get us and take us to the place he has prepared for us. Today we celebrate God’s promise in Jesus Christ that our loved ones continue to live in God’s presence and in our memory.

We remember Chris Attwood.
