Rueben

By Mike and Dottie Clark Dec 6, 2025 3 Min Read

Rueben was raised at Casa and has worked 23 years in Cleaveland, Tn.

Dottie has begun to communicate with Adela and me. She talks mostly about my family and the death of my sister two years ago. This is really a breakthrough for her. Physically nothing has changed but with her mind improving it is wonderful.

Fundanier, the kidney ministry of Dr. Lou, invited our 3 children still on dialysis at Casa to celebrate the Transforming Future activities at Roosevelt Hospital.

I was so happily surprised when Rueben showed up. He came here years ago in first grade and graduated high school at Casa. He moved to the USA and has worked in Cleveland, Tn. for 22 years. He is married. He just blessed me so much. It was wonderful to see him and the life God has given him.

Colton´s mother is ill, so they left to go visit her in the states.

Dottie loves the therapy because Julietta, Adela and Michelle make it so much fun.

All the medical staff came and chose clothes from Dottie´s closet.

Another name for God is found in Isaiah 28:5. “In that day shall the Lord of hosts be for a CROWN OF GLORY and for a DIADEM OF BEAUTY unto the residue of His people.” God has a special residue or remnant of people who will avoid His judgment because of their faithfulness to Him.

God will be a CROWN OF GLORY to these obedient ones. They will share in His character, His holiness, righteousness and justice. This CROWN OF GLORY is a powerful symbol in Christianity for the eternal reward and honor God gives faithful believers, especially spiritual leaders, for serving others and persevering in faith. It is a reward for faithfulness.
