A Time of Remembrance

A memorial service at Annual Conference included lighting candles for churches that had closed in the past year and reading the names of clergy and clergy spouses who have died. 

“Friends, we have gathered here to praise God and to bear witness to our faith as we celebrate the lives of all who have gone home to glory,” said Rev. Hyerim Jung. “We come together in grief, acknowledging our human loss. May God grant us grace, that in pain we may find comfort, in sorrow hope, in death resurrection.”
