We will hold a brief ceremony commemorating the 1 year passing of Reverend Karen Lindquist (October 8, 1954 – February 4, 2024), following the Sunday worship service.

🎵 We will begin with the offering of a song composed by Isla Ross in honor of Rev. Karen Lindquist, “Lady of Faith” which she will play in the Sanctuary.

All congregants are then invited to join on the lawn at the front west side of the Sanctuary to witness the consecration of ground where a rose will symbolically be planted this spring in Karen’s honor.

In Sufi mystical literature, the rose is often a symbol of divine love, the beauty of the soul, and the unfolding of spiritual enlightenment. The famous Persian poet Rumi frequently used roses in his poetry to symbolize spiritual love and the soul's journey. It will be a blessing if you are able to be present for this short gathering.

Our regular Guiding Council meeting will follow the memorial ceremony, at 12:00 noon.
