Share a Remembrance
We are living in troubled times and we all need care from time to time. You can light a candle, request pastoral care, find support from the care team, or honor our community’s joys and sorrows. Do not bear the burden alone. We are here for each other.
Candles of Remembrance
Sharing Remembrances in Worship works best when we share our souls’ yearnings with the worship leader before Sunday morning. If you would like to have this Sunday’s worship leader share your request aloud during the pastoral prayer, you may do so by submitting the form. This will also light a candle on our website.
Our Joys and Sorrows
Najee Seabrooks
We lit a candle for Najee Seabrooks, killed by the Paterson police on Friday. Najee dedicated his life to reducing gun violence and worked every day as a high-risk violence interventionist. In the midst of a mental health crisis, Najee's team, his family, was not allowed to do the work they were trained to do, and the police response failed him. We stand with Najee’s family in grief and mourning and a commitment to creating a safer and more just community for all.
the family of Glenn Burke
Kim McLennon lights a candle of sorrow for the family of Glenn Burke. Kim’s brother in law Glenn passed away suddenly on Sunday Feb. 26. Glenn and Kim’s sister Karen had just celebrated their 21st wedding anniversary. The family needs the power of collective prayer at this time of sorrow.
