Mrs Debra Susan Hlebo's Obituary
Debbie Hlebo was born June 2, 1959 (She never looked her age). Debbie was married to Terry Hlebo (Pastor of Calvary Chapel Rialto) on February 2, 2006 and that day she became “The First Lady Of Calvary Chapel Rialto”. On Friday, July 17, 2020, God received The First Lady Of Calvary Chapel Rialto into heaven. (AKA Pastor Terry’s Bride)
Debbie said April 2017, in response to being diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer, “I will not complain, but I am going to be thankful, grateful, and I am going to praise Him!” That is exactly what my bride did for the next 3 years and 3 months. She underwent almost 3 years of chemo with all its side effects, multiple surgical procedures, scans, labs, and radiation. She never complained, she lived out the very definition of the term “Saint” true believer. She left behind a testimony of a woman who loved Jesus Christ with all of her heart and with all of her life! Her attitude of gratitude was my bride!
(NLT) 2 Corinthians 5:1 For we know that when this earthly tent we live in is taken down (that is, when we die and leave this earthly body), we will have a house in heaven, an eternal body made for us by God himself and not by human hands.
2 We grow weary in our present bodies, and we long to put on our heavenly bodies like new clothing.
3 For we will put on heavenly bodies; we will not be spirits without bodies.
4 While we live in these earthly bodies, we groan and sigh, but it’s not that we want to die and get rid of these bodies that clothe us. Rather, we want to put on our new bodies so that these dying bodies will be swallowed up by life.
5 God himself has prepared us for this, and as a guarantee he has given us his Holy Spirit.
6 So we are always confident, even though we know that as long as we live in these bodies we are not at home with the Lord.
7 For we live by believing and not by seeing.
8 Yes, we are fully confident, and we would rather be away from these earthly bodies, for then we will be at home with the Lord.
9 So whether we are here in this body or away from this body, our goal is to please him.
10 For we must all stand before Christ to be judged. We will each receive whatever we deserve for the good or evil we have done in this earthly body.
As believers we rejoice that she is in the presence of Jesus, she is out of her prison (AKA) body.
