Dearest Deacon and Sister Greene, and family,

You are greatly loved.

We will miss Alex Greene. I pray, that God forever use Alex's life, as an axle on which the Gospel's justice can "roll on like a river, righteousness like a never-failing stream!" (Amos 5:24). May the wheels of his family's two churches--his mother's Emanuel AME and also his father's Evening of Prayer COGIC--together carry Alex's legacy, to the honor and glory of the Kingdom. May Alex's life be a balm that heals Charleston, and beyond. "Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren" (1 John 3:16). My deepest love to all my family in King Jesus, at both Emanuel AME and at Evening of Prayer COGIC. Alex's life is surely the seed of far-reaching, abundant blessings, even yet to come.

With warmest, personal regards, in Christ,

Christina Felder- Major
