Hello Open Road,

Ruth Morris, beloved wife of John Morris, mother to David, Sophie and Grace, Grandma to many, passed Saturday morning.

Anyone who has joined us for church would remember well the delightfully calm presence she brings with her to the beach as she sits with John (and Fred + Jean) in their corner chairs.

Ruth has declined in recent times and it has been her time to leave and be gathered to her eternal Father and heavenly host. May God's angels transition her well into a whole new experience of God and His goodness.

Ruth is home.

Home, a distant shore awaiting me
Home, a city that You're building
Home, I know Your love is leading me home
Home, where we'll lay aside our weeping
Home, where the air is thick with glory
Home, this is where my heart is aching to go

Home, Home, Home, Home

Home, I know one day You're calling me
Home, find me watching, find me ready to go
To my Father and a wedding
What joy and celebrating
How good it is to finally come home
To finally come home
Can't wait to finally come home
Can't wait to finally come home

Home, hear the cloud of witness cheering us on
To a place where streets are paved with gold
Where there is no night or sorrow
Where even death is swallowed
Where God Himself will make His home

John has requested time to rest and would prefer not to receive any calls at this time.

Much love to John and the Morris' family,

Dan + all the Open Road Family
