Eileen found her comfort and hope in the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ, whose perfect life, bitter death on the cross, and glorious resurrection have brought forgiveness and salvation to all sinners. Throughout her life she was an active member of congregations that were faithful to the teachings of Holy Scripture. Through faith in Christ, she is now enjoying the blessings of the Lord in heaven, spoken of in her confirmation verse: “In Your presence is fullness of joy; at Your right hand are pleasures forevermore” (Psalm 16:11)
