At that time, as Jesus passed on from there, he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax office; and he said to him, "Follow me." And he rose and followed him.

Smilja Gvozdanovic

Dear Parishioners,

By now, you may have heard of the loss of one of our members at St. Matthew's- Smilja Gvozdanovic. After months of failing health, she fell asleep in the Lord on Wednesday, 2 February.

Smilja and her husband Dragutin have been long time members of our parish, with Dragutin serving a time as president of our parish council. Smilja always greeted everyone in church with a contagious smile, and she usually had some witty anecdote to share with each person to whom she spoke. Her charisma and loving character made her a true delight in every way. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her!

Her funeral arrangements are planned for this week as the following:

Thursday 10 February at 2:00pm -
Parastos -
285 Great Northern Road (Gordon and Watson Chapel)

Friday 11 February at 3:20pm -
burial -
Cremation Chapel, Aberdeen Crematorium

**Alternatively to bringing flowers, a collection for the Save the Children fund will be made instead.**

Please keep Smilja's family in your prayers during this difficult time.
