We were saddened to learn of the death of Lil Rice, wife of former WCG pastor Phillip Rice, the son of Ginny Rice (widow of long-time WCG leader Richard Rice) and brother of GCI pastor Anthony Rice. Lil died on January 11 following a lengthy illness. Phillip currently is staying with Ginny in Baton Rouge, LA. Phillip has his own health problems and is on disability. Your prayers are much appreciated for the family in this difficult time.
