Sixth Annual Service of Remembrance
Lincoln Christian Church will host the Sixth Annual Service of
Remembrance
on Sunday, November 1, 2009, at 4:00 p.m. in the Church Sanctuary at
204
North McLean Street. The purpose in providing this yearly gathering
is
threefold: to celebrate God’s gift of life and to worship Him for
it; to
honor the lives of loved ones who have died, particularly during the
past
year; and to provide a corporate opportunity for loved ones to
process,
express and heal from their grief. A special part of the service
will be
a time when each person who has died will be named individually and
a
candle will be lit in his or her memory and honor. A devotional will
be
brought by Dr. Paul Boatman, Professor of Pastoral Care and
Counseling and
Seminary Dean at Lincoln Christian University, during the service.
Music
will be coordinated by Tim Searby, Minister of Worship at the
church.
Members of the Wellness Ministry Team will also take part in leading
the
service. A reception will be held after the service in the Fireside
Room
at the Church. The service is open to the public, and everyone is
invited
to attend. If anyone would like to have a loved one recognized
during the
service, the name of the person and a photo can be sent to
remember@lincolnchristianchurch.org or delivered to the church
office
prior to October 22.
