The eldest child of the Bishop, David Heward-Mills, has been reported dead. He passed away after battling a short illness.
David Heward-Mills lived in the United States of America where he worked as a medical doctor. He died at the age of 31.
Funeral arrangements will be communicated in due course.
The bishop titled his sermon, ‘The grave is not the end’, and described the death of his son as a situation that makes “everything” meaningless.
“My son David just passed away. It spoils everything. You ask me am I sad? If you had a son who died, will you be sad? You should ask yourself that question. It spoils everything. It brings a funny environment and it makes nonsense of everything. We always try to wish it further and further away but that is how it is."
“We, also as a church, are heartbroken, however, we stand with our leader and his family and believe that God will comfort and see us through this very difficult season,” the church added.
