OUR CARING COMMUNITY
We celebrate with the Charles family as daughter Natalie Charles graduates from Southern Methodist University.
We pray for those hospitalized; Alan Lummus, who remains critically ill, and John McCall, recovering from a stroke and subsequent surgery.
We hold in our hearts member Mary Ann Kennedy, now residing in a care facility in Southlake and former staff member Regina Johnson's family as husband Michael's mother Bernice copes with illness and frequent hospitalizations.
Our hearts are with those who grieve: Francis Leger and her family as they mourn Francis' grandfather Ramon Seda, who died on May 2, and Michelle Perkus and family as they mourn congregant Gerry Perkus, who died on May 13. Gerry's memorial will be held this Wednesday, May 24, at 4:30 in the Sanctuary.
Grover Gillett’s memorial is this Sunday at 4pm, with valet parking provided and a reception to follow in Channing Hall.
