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
Lincoln Turner
Wendy McNeil lights this candle of remembrance for Lincoln Turner and shares: “Lincoln and his wife Sharon took me under their wing and offered me the support I needed as the Montclair Art Museum's first Black professional. Lincoln was one of the first crusaders for the cause of affordable housing in Montclair, was a man of great intelligence, empathy, and style. He will be missed by many.”
Sesame Workers Union
Brennyn Nast lights this candle of joy for the Sesame Workers Union. On May 15th the workers behind the non-profit that produces Sesame Street formed a union! Though Brennyn was laid off in March, they have continued to work for this union effort that they began with a small group of colleagues nearly 2 years ago. What an incredible joy it is to see this labor union make it over the finish line! Wishing them strength and solidarity as they negotiate.
