Sunday Meeting, October 28
Early Sunday Morning - 10:00 a.m. - Ceremonial Hall, 4th floor
Remembrance Sunday - Many of those who accompanied us along life’s way had a profound influence on the way we are. That influence continues long after our separation through distance or death. It is appropriate that we take time out to remember those whose influence lives on through our actions, a quiet time to reflect on how we benefited from them and how we can pass those benefits on to others.
Members and friends will have an opportunity to honor the individuals who played an important, perhaps formative, role in their lives and to speak in remembrance of them, if they wish. Tony Hileman presides
