Dr. Donna Williams Smith of Divine Call Ministries of Southern California extends deepest condolences to Pastor Raul Ries, Calvary Chapel, Diamond Bar, and the entire natural family, as well as the spiritual family of the precious woman of God and Dr. Sharon Ries. 
This minister had the privilege of benefiting from the excellent teaching of both Dr. Sharon and Pastor Raul from 2007-2014. I distinctly remember the bustling ministr(ies) Sharon had oversight of…, from the beautifully curated women’s oriented gift shop section, the Holy Spirit-inspired women’s retreats, and spectacular Spring Teas…always very well organized, expertly decorated, and attended…
Additionally, this minister was aware of the active missionary trips of Dr. Sharon between Southern California and Villavicencio, El Secreto and other extended missions.  She seemed to thrive on her service to the Kingdom of God – it is what made her most joyful and content.
My prayers are that our Heavenly Father would keep the entire family (natural and spiritual) in His warm embrace, providing for every spiritual and temporal need, in Jesus’ Name, Amen and Amen!
Rest Well Blessed Woman of God!

Sharon, Woman of God 
    I will remember always your voice, your red hair, your sense of humor, your kindness and your encouragement to many women and myself, at church, womens retreats, in person.  Most importantly the example of a woman that loves her Lord ❤️ and her family. May your children and their families continue to bear fruit into the garden you have sewn. Thank you for being an example of a woman who drew her strength from Christ and was faithful through all until the end.

My deepest condolences to the Ries Family. 🙏
Sharon was an incredible woman of FAITH.  Her heart 💗 beat for the Lord above ALL else & her light  for Him shined BRIGHT. ✨
She was a beautiful maidservant of the Lord.  She had an absolute gift in sharing God's Word with women & enlightening of His Omnipotent grand love & grace.  I loved how she would bring the Bible to life as she would teach.
This is just a little morsel of who Sharon was & I will hold dear to my heart. ❤

My prayers are with Raul & your beautiful family & the church body at Calvary Golden Springs.

God's Peace
