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
Gladys Shaw
Becca Seibert Nast shares, “I light this candle of remembrance for my aunt, Gladys Shaw, who passed away Sunday morning February 21st after living many years with dementia. Aunt Gladys was the picture of resilience. She taught me so many ways to make art and to see beauty in the world. Her loving, funny, creative spirit will guide me for the rest of my life. She is so deeply missed.”
Erik Pedersen
Dionne Ford Kurtti shares, “I'd like to light a candle of remembrance for my friend Erik Pedersen who died on January 21st at the age of 84. Erik, a spiritual advisor to me, was the epitome of grace and generosity. He changed my life and he will be missed, but the gifts he shared with me will remain.”
