Service of Remembrance

Sunday, November 16, 4:00 pm in Halldorson Hall

Led by the Deacons and Pastor Tom this contemplative service of candlelight and music provides an opportunity to honor and give thanks for our departed friends and loved ones.  During the service, we will take time to remember by name those who have recently passed and those long-missed during the holiday season. All are welcome to join us as we acknowledge our grief and claim the hope we share in God’s eternal love.

November 16

The Empty Chair at the Holiday Table – Presenter is Lucy Deutsch, Retired Geriatric Manager

Join us for this gentle and thoughtful presentation and conversation about grief during the holiday season. When someone we love is no longer with us, holidays can stir deep sorrow alongside cherished memories. We’ll talk about how to honor that empty chair, navigate the emotional complexities of the season, and find meaningful ways to cope and connect. Whether your loss is recent or long-standing. We'll talk about how you can adapt holiday celebrations to ever-changing family dynamics and how to find joy and peace amidst the sadness.

More details to follow, but please let Elizabeth know about potential interest in making this event happen.

Happy Thanksgiving.  Church offices are closed on Thanksgiving Day and the Friday after.

Meaning coming or arrival, Advent invites us to pause in anticipation of the coming celebration of Jesus’ birth, and to reflect on our own expectant hope for a world where God’s justice prevails and peace is established once and for all. As the weeks of Advent progress, the focus shifts to thanks and praise for the birth of the one who has already come – Jesus Christ our Savior.
