When does this senseless Black on Black crime stop? My heart goes out to the parents and their family. My daughter went to school with Jushua, and he was such a kind and loving young man with a bright future ahead of him. I hope whoever took these young men life's are caught and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. I pray God wraps His arms around the parents and comforts their spirit with peace................We have to change as a race. I'm willing to do whatever is necessary to help and assist with this change.
I lost both of my sons 3 months a part last year in 2022. September and December. As a father, my soul like to have left my body. This triggered so many tears….The pain is the worse. The pain a mother experiences when a child comes in the world…a real father experiences that pain in a worse way when his child is cut down. The pain is paralyzing and one is left to cry out to God and weep bitterly. I just returned to work full-time after having to go part-time for 10 months. Intense therapeutic help and medication was needed. God help those who suffered this type of lost. I have experienced many loses but the pain of losing a child I would not wish on my worse enemies.
My heart goes out to you. My condolences to you and your family. I lost both of my parents 2weeks apart in 86 due to illness, it's a pain that never goes away. Sending hugs to you and your family and I will keep you in my prayers 🙏🙏🙏🙏😪

I’m sitting here crying like I knew these young men. Their father’s pain is palpable. May God lift him in strength and healing, and may they rest in eternal peace.
As a mother of four boys (one set of twins) I couldn’t imagine burying one, let alone two at the same time. Jesus heal their hearts and give them comfort and rest in your arms! ❤
Dear God😢😭😭😞😞...I cried cried😭 Please cover and comfort this family Oh Lord. Protect their hearts in this time of gried and sorrow. Watching the Dad break down over his babies broke me down🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽...May they sleep in peace together forever🕊🕊
I just looked at Amanda Williams lastnight. Such a Beautiful home going along with a Powerful message. This just hurts my heart to see this. A parent is not suppose to bury his/her children. They are suppose to bury us. My heart aches for the families. My deepest condolences
Just seeing this father broke me down to many tears like I knew them personally. When I see funerals like this I think of my son and I wouldn’t have the strength to be a parent in this position. I would need all of god strength. Praying for this family❤
Jesus!!! We're crying out to you, Lord! Please help this family, their loved ones and heal our hearts. I don't ever want to imagine the pain of losing a child. As a mother of a grown man, my heart aches because I simply cannot imagine 💔
YALL SO CALLED MIGHTY JESUS ALLOWS HEINOUS THINGS AND DOES NOTHING TO STOP ANYTHING- HE IS NULL AND VOID AS ALWAYS! HE DOESNT EXIST. THE BIGGEST BRAINWASH ON THE MONDS OF MY BLACK PEOPLE IS RELIGION- YT JESUS AND THE BIBLE’ 🙄🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️😡😡🤬🤬🤬🤬
Are you kidding me I don’t like him at all with the way he is pushing the people along it SCREAMS!!!! I have other things to do hurry up I need to go gracious my foot there is absolutely nothing gracious about this man in a dress.
smh I just watched Amanda Williams homegoing on Thursday. This is not right yall...come on please all of this violence against each has to stop.I had to pause the video and say this. To the person that took these two brothers lives... do you see all the pain you have caused!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Look at their dad!!!!!! why would you do this to someone!!!!!! Please this has to stop!!!! Please!!!!!! FATHER GOD!!!!!! PLEASE PUT YOUR ARMS AROUND THEIR DAD!!!!!! COMFORT THE WHOLE FAMILY HOLD THEM UP LORD!!!!!!

I knew them, I went to school with them and knew them for years. I even dated Dominic for a short period.. they were the kindest people ever, nobody felt judged by them. Even the kids who were bullied by other kids were treated respectfully by them, it’s so sad that we lost special men!😔 I hope justice is served!
I don't why this came up on my suggested video but I watched the service for these brothers. As a black man (59 yrs) I am in tears for strangers. Black america, we have to change our communities. Law enforcement can't do it alone, we have to start raising our children again. Like this father did! If you read this Jackie, just know I am grieving with you sir.
I don't know them but I'm crying real tears 😭 😢 I can feel their family pain. GOD strengthen them were they are weak. Much love to the family & friends 💪🏾 🙏🏽 🙌🏾 ❤ ♥
My heart is broken when ever I see on tv another life taken by our own. I cry with the family. A father's heart is broken. Lord help us to get through. Please comfort all the families who are at this time mourning the loss of loved ones.
Yes Lord we must trust in our creator for he knows all and will give us the strength thru to sorrow so that will be able to carry in the midst of the hour. 😢
My heartaches and to see Pastor Vernon attentively cover the brothers in their bed and stand with the family and close the casket broke me all the way down to witness this level of shepherding is touching. Prayers for the Cunningham family and justice for their sons.
I really don’t think the mother or father had time to say goodbye. They were rushed. I really feel like the funeral people should have taken over. I think the pastor should have stayed in the pulpit. He should’ve not closed that casket with the family. I don’t have nothing against the pastor but it hurts so bad to see how the family was rushed. That family lost 2 family member. He should have been sitting with the family when the service was going on until it was time to eulogize.
WHEW JESUS BE A FENCE AND COVER THIS FAMILY!!! LORD WE ASK YOU TO GIVE THIS MOTHER AND FATHER COMFORT AND UNDERSTANDING DEAR GOD, I ASK THIS PRAYER IN YOUR NAME AMEN!!!
I'm Praying for this family as a mother of a 22 & 21 yr old sons my heart breaks for this mother and father God comfort as only you can in Jesus name!!!
I DONT KNOW THIS FAMILY, BUT MY TEARS ARE HEAVY AS THE FAMILY. I HAVE 2 SONS AND CANT IMAGINE THE PAIN. OH LORD, PLEASE STRENGTHEN THIS FAMILY IN JESUS MIGHTY NAME 😭😭😭😭💔💔🙏🏼🙏🏼
This is so hurtful!!!😭 I can't imagine the grief these young men parents are experiencing. I extend my sincerest condolences. May the Lord heal their pain and give them peace beyond understanding.🙏
My hearts cries with the family and I know God will heal and comfort them in their losses. These two young men don’t have to worry any longer about a world that shows minorities such hate and violence . They are at peace and in the loving arms of God who will certainly bring peace and understanding to those of their communities. They seemed well loved and admired. I hope and pray that the person who is responsible sees this ceremony that celebrates these two Kings lives and feel so much hurt he turns himself into serve the sentencing he deserves.
I pray that this tragedy will let those that haven’t given their life to Jesus that they would do so before it is to late Lord please bless the family to get through this tragedy and please family give your life to Jesus that is my prayer🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I'm not a member and was directed to this beautiful Home Going. I do know that there is a God who sits up high and looks down low. My condolences to the family. I pray for justice for these two Brothers. Amen
Mr. Cunningham my heart bleeds for you and your family. To lose two of your children for senseless gun violence and black on black crime is truly truly heart shattering. To Dr. RA Vernon I thank you and your congregation for upholding this service for the Cunningham family and friends. Beautiful celebration of life. 🤧🙌🏾🙏🏾❤️
Lacresha Bolden sang at my Grandmother and Grandfather’s funeral! What a blessing she is! She comforted us and lifted us. God bless the family! May God be with you and comfort you always..
I am the mother of two sons who are 20 and 29. I also have a 28-year-old daughter, and my heart is broken because no one deserves this. We always see mother crying over their children but when you see a father so broken it simply breaks your soul. NOTHING was so intent that the only way to resolve it was to take the life of two young men who worked hard, made an honest living, and were young men of integrity. This senselessness killing of your own ethnicity MUST END! Lord, continue to cover this family, help them heal, and provide them with peace that goes beyond all understanding. *Young Scholars ... don't allow yourselves to be used to senselessly wipe out your own race! WAKE UP...STOP AND THINK BEFORE YOU REACT. We go through too much as mothers to get you here to have you someone take your lives instantly changing ours. Use your spirit of discernment and listen to God. He will never forsake you. Thank you, Pastor...you are truly a blessing.
Pastor Vernon I paused this video briefly Amanda's home going was amazing and you are blowing me away with this one it hurts my heart I had 5 sons and two daughters I lost one son to violence and I know the pain and my condolences sincerely to both families just want to thank you for the Man of God you are and to Mr.Jackie I salute you well done Dad in the name of Jesus there's is none other like our Father Jesus Christ
Dr. Vernon you are an anointed Man of God with a special gift . Your sermons are profound ,personal and changing hearts. May God continue to bless the Word Church and your community. Praying for peace and strength for this Father and his family. God please stop this violence.
Im just hearing about this for the first time and seeing this service. My God..i don't even know if justice was served or the person/persons were arrested yet. Its unfortunatly Christmas day now. My heart is breaking to see their Father by their two caskets. My prayers are so much with you Sir and all the friends and family. May you all receive justice for these two young men. Like i said, i just happened to come acrossed this tonight.I have only read a bit if what happened. May you rest easy in Heaven, Joshua and Dominic...im in absolute tears....😢
Sending prayers & Love to this family ❤ I don’t even know you all , but my heart goes out to all of you. The service was beautiful . Dr Vernon you preached & Encouraged the people To God Be The Glory Thanks for sharing
When someone you love passes away, I suggest they go to the viewing, the day before the actual funeral, if the family decides to have one, to see their loved ones off. That way, they won’t be ushered off, like, they are being done now. That bothers me. They are grieving, trying to say their final goodbyes. Some people had just walked up, and were ushered off. Do better. They can’t even grieve the way they want to because of just that. Please, let them have their moment. By you doing that to them, you’re just adding insult to injury.
I agree. That irritated me so much. I felt like Pastor Vernon was not showing compassion. Pushing them along and motioning for them to move along quickly was hard to watch. I'm not surprised though. That Pastor was mean to me and my daughter back on Aug 9th, 2009 when we lost everything in a flood and were homeless. I was told to reach out to the Word Church but when I met the Pastor he said he couldn't help us if we weren't members of the church. I broke out crying because I felt that was our last hope. As my daughter and I started to leave the church a gentleman named Brother Roy, Royce, Ray (I'm sorry I forgot his name but I think it started with an R) called us back into the church and let us relax on the pews since it was late and he saw me and my babygirl was exhausted. He also got us what we wanted to eat and he gave me some money so we could purchase hygiene items we needed and he gave me some info that helped me and my daughter out a lot. I thank God he showed me and my daughter mercy that night. 🙏🏽
@@patbeavers2395 Yes, he was very rude and coldhearted. Close the door? On the love ones? I think if the family was paying out of pocket for this funeral it would've gone a whole different way. Coming down from the stage to push people along was so tacky on his part but like I said I'm not surprised.... I'm still shocked 14 yrs later that a pastor was acting like that towards a mother and her child who just lost everything and who wasn't from up here in Ohio. Didn't care at all. Who cares if you are a member of a church or not. If a person is reaching out for help especially in my situation at that particular time then help them if you call yourself being a man of the cloth. That's why a lot of these pastors are being exposed now because their intentions are not pure. I felt Pastor Vernon made this funeral about him. It was like a big production to him and he is so arrogant. Laughing and joking about some fraternity colors and trying to recruit new members for his church at the expense of this man's pain. I can tell that Dad was not feeling some of that stuff that pastor was saying when they would put the camera on his face. I'm sorry but I just felt like no real compassion was shown to this family. It was just one big production to promote the church!!!
@@TNT1719The pastor, (Vernon) did the same thing at the funeral a few days ago for Amanda Williams, which I thought was not nice, so maybe that is just his MO.
We black people are good at doing funerals...but...we need to regain the the ability to cherish and enjoy......justice...mercy...respect...integrity...community...LOVE...LIFE...Let's get back to love and life young black people...RIP to these young people and peace and comfort to the family...Lord...continue to give this pastor Moses and his first-lady the strength to continue this challenging ministry and give them the wisdom and guidance to find opportunities to decompress from time to time...To Christ be the glory...
Crying my eyes out. I feel so bad for Dad. He lost both of his sons on what suppose to be a fun night full of music and dancing at a bar. I hate that bar A Touch Of Italy. Too much bad stuff is going on in that place now. I live close by and used to walk to the bar when it was called Cheers and Jeers but the crowd has changed now. I ride pass that bar everyday on my way to work and the cops are always throwing their lights on to get to that bar because of a disturbance. I hate some idiot took them young men from their family and friends. Turn yourself in because I know you watching all the media and news on what you did. Its over you have to pay for your foolishness. RIP Brothers!!! 😢🕊️🙏🏽
God lay your hands on this family in there time of need, give them them the strength to get through this and please give the father the strength because u can see the pain he his going through. In Jesus name sake Amen
Young folks give your life to Christ he's waiting for you I've never heard anyone say they regret giving their life to Christ but I've heard people say they regret not doing it sooner this world has nothing to offer
My heart is shattered and completely ACHING for this father. My God. Allow this senseless tragedy usher him into belief and peace thru Jesus Christ and Christ ALONE. I pray these babies get the justice they deserve. Goodness gracious. ❤
I'm watching this service from Las Vegas NV. I'm in awe. the love of God is a everlasting love. Thank you Dr. Vernon and the Word Church for showing the love of God in a very real way. May God comfort this family at thi 40:02 s tine.
🙏🏽💕 No words, here… Cunningham Family we are lifting You All up to our Heavenly Father….. we just lost two beautiful nieces, one a god-child, the other a much loved 🥰 niece, of both whom we are awesomely missing every day of our time on earth 🌍. Lord Jesus Christ… you’re in charge… you’re In complete control 🙏🏽💕🙏🏽📖 ⛪️…
Jesus loves us . How do I know? There is something on the inside of me. That makes me love my brother and sister, when they have been mean to me. That is Jesus.
Bless you Dr. Vernon for this service. Praying for the family. This has been my family’s experience in the last year with the loss of my cousin. I will never understand how an individual can claim the life of another, when he is to be his keeper. I pray this message will spread as vigorously as a lot of other more senseless content spreads through our community. ❤
Lord, this was a beautiful home going service. But so difficult to see the pain that this dad is enduring.. my prayers and condolences are still with this family with this great loss, God’s continued blessings for comfort and healing
Thank you for your transparency. OMG this message not just a eulogy but a message that is life changing. Love your ministry and the true and living God you serve.
Thank you Pastor Vernon, for hearing God and speaking to the father and family!! For you and Word Church for showing how to Love people as you Love God!!
My condolences to the family for the loss of these beautiful black men. Lord give them the strength needed during their bereavement and there after.🙏🏾💙🙏🏾💙
My deepest sympathy to the family my heart breaks for you all When are (all) young people going to stop hurting& killing each other instead of supporting each other and trying to find friends &family in the wrong people If ever someone expects you to prove to them how strong you are or how brave you are by hurting someone else.They are not your friends or your family.because at the end of the day the people that truly love you unconditionally are your real family,& the ones who suffer for your poor decisions,
My heart absolutely breaks for this family. Heavenly Father please wrap this family in your loving arms and give them strength to endure this unimaginable pain. 😢💔💔
This is the most heartbreaking ceremony I’ve ever witnessed This is so unbelievable and unbearable My sincere condolences to the families of those lost their loved ones
😢I have one son about the same age and my heart hurts for him. I sense God’s love 💕 and pray that a profound peace reside with those parents that have had to suffer through this tragedy.
Today would have been my little brother's birthday but he got murdered in 2005 died in my arms. Senseless violence is doing so much damage to the Black family my prayers good out to everybody that love them especially the parents I'm so very sorry...B1 East Oakland,Ca
Dr. R.A. Vernon's message on today was so profound and was True ministry. It was so heartfelt. Condolences to the family and friends. Your message resonated with so many. You touched hearts and many lives will be changed as a result of this message. God used you mightily Man of God. Their father will never be the same. May God truly continue bless your heart and your ministry. Blessings overflow in ALL things.
My Lord,this was a beautiful & powerful celebration of life. Pastor Vernon, your word was so powerful. Like a rolling thunder,in a drifting cloud. Am I,my brother’s keeper.” Jesus the chills I felt when you spoke those words . I myself, & my extended family would like to send our heart felt condolences,& sincere sympathy,& prayer’s to these young men,& their families.💐
I ask in the name of Yeshua that God comfort the parents (esp. the father), the grandparents, the Pastor, the funeral directors who relive this probably almost daily, the friends and other family. Lift them up Lord, let them know there is a plan You have and You hold them close. This hurt me hard so I know those who are there, they are crushed and I am without words. I send all of you light and prayers of healing. I hope they catch the demonic trash that did this. RIP young men.
Great grace as I was praying for you Doc, a Pastor's assignment is just that, a assignment against all odds. Comfort to the family from God who is the Father of all comfort. Jesus
While sitting here at work I came across this service. What a Beautiful Service. I pray for peace and strength for the family and the word was definitely delivered. A Beautiful Sermon.
Sending Prayers to this Family of these two Beautiful Black Men Brothers, Kings in Christ Jesus. Absence from the body is to be present with God. May God Continue to Strengthen the Dad and the Family. Also, May God continue to Get the Glory with the many souls that came to him on this day by the Pastor concern for their Salvation and eternal Peace in Jesus' name. Glory to God and Blessings to All.
Praying for this family especially dad, you raised them well. I know the loss of 1 son my 1st born of 4 but two i can't imagine ❤.

Praying for the family and what an awesome Pastor to stand there with the family that's amazing there are some great pastors out there just like my daddy was. God bless if you have lost anyone keep the memories alive and just remember One Sweet Day we will see our loved ones be blessed ❤️🙏
When does this senseless Black on Black crime stop? My heart goes out to the parents and their family.

This is so hurtful!!!😭 I can't imagine the grief these young men parents are experiencing. I extend my sincerest condolences. May the Lord heal their pain and give them peace beyond understanding.🙏
My hearts cries with the family and I know God will heal and comfort them in their losses. These two young men don’t have to worry any longer about a world that shows minorities such hate and violence . They are at peace and in the loving arms of God who will certainly bring peace and understanding to those of their communities. They seemed well loved and admired. I hope and pray that the person who is responsible sees this ceremony that celebrates these two Kings lives and feel so much hurt he turns himself into serve the sentencing he deserves.

I'm not a member and was directed to this beautiful Home Going. I do know that there is a God who sits up high and looks down low. My condolences to the family. I pray for justice for these two Brothers. Amen
Mr. Cunningham my heart bleeds for you and your family. To lose two of your children for senseless gun violence and black on black crime is truly truly heart shattering. To Dr. RA Vernon I thank you and your congregation for upholding this service for the Cunningham family and friends. Beautiful celebration of life. 🤧🙌🏾🙏🏾❤️
Lacresha Bolden sang at my Grandmother and Grandfather’s funeral! What a blessing she is! She comforted us and lifted us. God bless the family! May God be with you and comfort you always..
God please put your loving arms of comfort around this family!
I am the mother of two sons who are 20 and 29. I also have a 28-year-old daughter, and my heart is broken because no one deserves this. We always see mother crying over their children but when you see a father so broken it simply breaks your soul. NOTHING was so intent that the only way to resolve it was to take the life of two young men who worked hard, made an honest living, and were young men of integrity. This senselessness killing of your own ethnicity MUST END! Lord, continue to cover this family, help them heal, and provide them with peace that goes beyond all understanding.
*Young Scholars ... don't allow yourselves to be used to senselessly wipe out your own race! WAKE UP...STOP AND THINK BEFORE YOU REACT. We go through too much as mothers to get you here to have you someone take your lives instantly changing ours. Use your spirit of discernment and listen to God. He will never forsake you.
Thank you, Pastor...you are truly a blessing.
Pastor Vernon I paused this video briefly Amanda's home going was amazing and you are blowing me away with this one it hurts my heart I had 5 sons and two daughters I lost one son to violence and I know the pain and my condolences sincerely to both families just want to thank you for the Man of God you are and to Mr.Jackie I salute you well done Dad in the name of Jesus there's is none other like our Father Jesus Christ
HALLELUJAH
Dr. Vernon you are an anointed Man of God with a special gift .
Your sermons are profound ,personal and changing hearts.
May God continue to bless the Word Church and your community.
Praying for peace and strength for this Father and his family.
God please stop this violence.
Im just hearing about this for the first time and seeing this service. My God..i don't even know if justice was served or the person/persons were arrested yet. Its unfortunatly Christmas day now. My heart is breaking to see their Father by their two caskets. My prayers are so much with you Sir and all the friends and family. May you all receive justice for these two young men. Like i said, i just happened to come acrossed this tonight.I have only read a bit if what happened. May you rest easy in Heaven, Joshua and Dominic...im in absolute tears....😢
My heart aches for this family, especially their father. I will be praying for him in these challenging days to come.
Sending prayers & Love to this family
❤
I don’t even know you all , but my heart goes out to all of you.
The service was beautiful .
Dr Vernon you preached & Encouraged the people
To God Be The Glory
Thanks for sharing
Let me say to the parents and family, I’m so sorry for your loss. You’re in my prayers. Only God can get you through this.
When someone you love passes away, I suggest they go to the viewing, the day before the actual funeral, if the family decides to have one, to see their loved ones off. That way, they won’t be ushered off, like, they are being done now. That bothers me. They are grieving, trying to say their final goodbyes. Some people had just walked up, and were ushered off. Do better. They can’t even grieve the way they want to because of just that. Please, let them have their moment. By you doing that to them, you’re just adding insult to injury.
I agree. That irritated me so much. I felt like Pastor Vernon was not showing compassion. Pushing them along and motioning for them to move along quickly was hard to watch. I'm not surprised though. That Pastor was mean to me and my daughter back on Aug 9th, 2009 when we lost everything in a flood and were homeless. I was told to reach out to the Word Church but when I met the Pastor he said he couldn't help us if we weren't members of the church. I broke out crying because I felt that was our last hope. As my daughter and I started to leave the church a gentleman named Brother Roy, Royce, Ray (I'm sorry I forgot his name but I think it started with an R) called us back into the church and let us relax on the pews since it was late and he saw me and my babygirl was exhausted. He also got us what we wanted to eat and he gave me some money so we could purchase hygiene items we needed and he gave me some info that helped me and my daughter out a lot. I thank God he showed me and my daughter mercy that night. 🙏🏽
@@TNT1719that’s a shame he was rude especially when he said close the doors.
I thought the exact same thing! Let them grieve. That was the last time they would see them.
@@patbeavers2395 Yes, he was very rude and coldhearted. Close the door? On the love ones? I think if the family was paying out of pocket for this funeral it would've gone a whole different way. Coming down from the stage to push people along was so tacky on his part but like I said I'm not surprised.... I'm still shocked 14 yrs later that a pastor was acting like that towards a mother and her child who just lost everything and who wasn't from up here in Ohio. Didn't care at all. Who cares if you are a member of a church or not. If a person is reaching out for help especially in my situation at that particular time then help them if you call yourself being a man of the cloth. That's why a lot of these pastors are being exposed now because their intentions are not pure. I felt Pastor Vernon made this funeral about him. It was like a big production to him and he is so arrogant. Laughing and joking about some fraternity colors and trying to recruit new members for his church at the expense of this man's pain. I can tell that Dad was not feeling some of that stuff that pastor was saying when they would put the camera on his face. I'm sorry but I just felt like no real compassion was shown to this family. It was just one big production to promote the church!!!
@@TNT1719The pastor, (Vernon) did the same thing at the funeral a few days ago for Amanda Williams, which I thought was not nice, so maybe that is just his MO.
We black people are good at doing funerals...but...we need to regain the the ability to cherish and enjoy......justice...mercy...respect...integrity...community...LOVE...LIFE...Let's get back to love and life young black people...RIP to these young people and peace and comfort to the family...Lord...continue to give this pastor Moses and his first-lady the strength to continue this challenging ministry and give them the wisdom and guidance to find opportunities to decompress from time to time...To Christ be the glory...
Amen
My thoughts and prayers are with this family. Bless you Dr.Vernon and the Word Church family for supporting this bereved family.
Crying my eyes out. I feel so bad for Dad. He lost both of his sons on what suppose to be a fun night full of music and dancing at a bar. I hate that bar A Touch Of Italy. Too much bad stuff is going on in that place now. I live close by and used to walk to the bar when it was called Cheers and Jeers but the crowd has changed now. I ride pass that bar everyday on my way to work and the cops are always throwing their lights on to get to that bar because of a disturbance. I hate some idiot took them young men from their family and friends. Turn yourself in because I know you watching all the media and news on what you did. Its over you have to pay for your foolishness. RIP Brothers!!! 😢🕊️🙏🏽
Lord have mercy. I am my brothers keeper. Yes beautiful homegoing for the precious brothers. RIP 🙏
God lay your hands on this family in there time of need, give them them the strength to get through this and please give the father the strength because u can see the pain he his going through. In Jesus name sake Amen
Young folks give your life to Christ he's waiting for you I've never heard anyone say they regret giving their life to Christ but I've heard people say they regret not doing it sooner this world has nothing to offer
BEING THE PERSON GOD MADE ME TO BE, MY HEART ACHES FOR THE LOST OF THIS FAMILY. FAMILY AND WORD CHURCH YOU HAVE MY CONDOLENCES AND PRAYERS. 🙏🏽

What a beautiful service Dr Vernon!! I hope someone listening to you learn to be their brother's keeper!! May God comfort the family❤😢
My heart is shattered and completely ACHING for this father. My God. Allow this senseless tragedy usher him into belief and peace thru Jesus Christ and Christ ALONE. I pray these babies get the justice they deserve. Goodness gracious. ❤
I'm watching this service from Las Vegas NV. I'm in awe. the love of God is a everlasting love. Thank you Dr. Vernon and the Word Church for showing the love of God in a very real way. May God comfort this family at thi 40:02 s tine.

Amen
My prayers and condolences to this father and the entire family. Dr. Vernon and Lady Vernon, strength be with the both of you.🙏🏽🙏🏽
Bless you Dr. Vernon for this service. Praying for the family. This has been my family’s experience in the last year with the loss of my cousin. I will never understand how an individual can claim the life of another, when he is to be his keeper. I pray this message will spread as vigorously as a lot of other more senseless content spreads through our community. ❤
Lord, this was a beautiful home going service. But so difficult to see the pain that this dad is enduring.. my prayers and condolences are still with this family with this great loss, God’s continued blessings for comfort and healing
Thank you for your transparency. OMG this message not just a eulogy but a message that is life changing. Love your ministry and the true and living God you serve.
Thank you Pastor Vernon, for hearing God and speaking to the father and family!! For you and Word Church for showing how to Love people as you Love God!!
My condolences to the family for the loss of these beautiful black men. Lord give them the strength needed during their bereavement and there after.🙏🏾💙🙏🏾💙
❤ God bless the Cunningham Family during this difficult time. Please stay encouraged.
Praying that God will strengthen their family during this difficult time.
My deepest sympathy to the family my heart breaks for you all
When are (all) young people going to stop hurting& killing each other instead of supporting each other and trying to find friends &family in the wrong people If ever someone expects you to prove to them how strong you are or how brave you are by hurting someone else.They are not your friends or your family.because at the end of the day the people that truly love you unconditionally are your real family,& the ones who suffer for your poor decisions,
My heart absolutely breaks for this family. Heavenly Father please wrap this family in your loving arms and give them strength to endure this unimaginable pain. 😢💔💔
May God bless all of these at the Altar and strengthen their spiritual life.
Such an amazing word making a superb connection with the tragic events that occured. God Bless him and the family!
This is the most heartbreaking ceremony I’ve ever witnessed
This is so unbelievable and unbearable
My sincere condolences to the families of those lost their loved ones
😢I have one son about the same age and my heart hurts for him. I sense God’s love 💕 and pray that a profound peace reside with those parents that have had to suffer through this tragedy.
Today would have been my little brother's birthday but he got murdered in 2005 died in my arms. Senseless violence is doing so much damage to the Black family my prayers good out to everybody that love them especially the parents I'm so very sorry...B1 East Oakland,Ca

Am I,my brother’s keeper.” Jesus the chills I felt when you spoke those words . I myself, & my extended family would like to send our heart felt condolences,& sincere sympathy,& prayer’s to these young men,& their families.💐
🙏🏾My heartaches for the father,l can’t imagine his pain 😢🙏🏾
The minister was so gentle and generous with his words of encouragement and support for this fantastic father who raised his sons.
I ask in the name of Yeshua that God comfort the parents (esp. the father), the grandparents, the Pastor, the funeral directors who relive this probably almost daily, the friends and other family. Lift them up Lord, let them know there is a plan You have and You hold them close. This hurt me hard so I know those who are there, they are crushed and I am without words. I send all of you light and prayers of healing. I hope they catch the demonic trash that did this. RIP young men.
Great grace as I was praying for you Doc, a Pastor's assignment is just that, a assignment against all odds. Comfort to the family from God who is the Father of all comfort. Jesus
The world needs more Ministers like you.
Dr Vernon just had the funeral of his member, Sister Williams the day before, also killed due to gun violence.
No words for this in American everyday. God of peace and love be in this place 🙏 and with the family in the days ahead.
While sitting here at work I came across this service. What a Beautiful Service. I pray for peace and strength for the family and the word was definitely delivered. A Beautiful Sermon.
A double funeral is the most traumatizing to witness when it's your love one or anyone of that matter. Prayers up for these brothers 🙏🏼
Lord my heart goes out to the parents. It’s hard enough losing one child. But losing 2 at the same time. Praying for justice for this family. 😢😢🙏🙏
Try five or eight
