We are here today, because people who came before us were faithful witnesses to the love and grace of God. We are here because someone(s) poured into our lives filling us with the light and love of Jesus, calling us out into the world to share that light with others. We are here, because for generations upon generations, this precious faith has been passed down and allowed to change the lives of so many. Join us this weekend as we celebrate those lives, those witnesses we have lost to the separation of death this past year and give thanks for them and so many more who have gone before us in grace!
