Dear Brouwer family,
Praying for you and your extended family that God will surround you with comfort and give you His peace during this difficult time as you grieve the loss of such a very special man who was so strong in his faith in the Lord. I had the priviledge to have many deep conversations with Sid over the years and I was so blessed and encouraged by his godly example and his unwavering faith through the joys/challenges in his life. What a comfort that he is resting in the arms of his Lord and Saviour. It is our prayer that God will be your comfort and strength in the days and weeks ahead. Psalm 18:1-2 "I love You, O Lord my strength. The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold."

Brouwer family, we are praying for you. We started attending Living Water about two years ago and got to know Sid as we often sat in the row in front of him. We would chat before service; he always asked us about our week and was very welcoming and gracious. He was a blessing to our family and will be missed.

We are so sorry for the loss of Sid. He was a big softy who was so proud of his children and loved his grandkids so much. He will be missed, but we know and are comforted by the fact that he knew Jesus and was at peace with whatever God had in store for his life. Psalm 130 vs 5. I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in His word I put my hope.
