With an answer to our prayers of healing for ViAnne Lehman, she is free of pain and looked in the eyes of Jesus as He held her and welcomed her to Heaven. She has been planning for this since she accepted Him into her heart at an early age. Her arrival that was planned just for her was on August 18, 2026, with her devoted husband, Sheldon R. Lehman by her side.
