We are saddened to announce that Verlantina Dizon died on January 12. She is the mother of GCI pastor and district pastor Bermie Dizon, and a long-time member of NewLife Fellowship, a GCI congregation in Pasadena, CA.
Verlantina was born on May 10, 1923 and devoted her life to her six children. Three of her sons are pastors and her only daughter is married to a pastor. She is remembered by her family as one who was dedicated to caring for her children and a woman who was prayerful, compassionate and resourceful. Friends in her congregation remember her ready smile, humor, involvement with the prayer ministry and regular Bible study attendance.
A memorial service in celebration of her life in Christ was conducted on January 15. Dr. Mike Morrison, Associate Pastor of NewLife Fellowship gave the message, “Death is a Defeated Enemy.”
