Borrowed Grief

We remember by name those who died in the past year and light candles for those we have lost throughout our lifetimes. Death and grief are not subjects easy to talk about, and yet they impact every single one of us. Together as a nurturing community, we will share our grief and hear the promises God offers us amid our tears. In Revelation, God talks about a new earth where God comes to be with us. As we face our own grief or the borrowed grief of those around us, we pray and hope for the presence of God to be real for every one of us.
