Wishing everyone a peaceful Sunday and a meaningful Memorial Day weekend. 🕊

Due to unexpected technical difficulties with our pre-recorded service audio, we unfortunately will not be able to share this week’s online Memorial Day weekend service as originally planned.

While the recording itself could not be salvaged, we still wanted to share this meaningful Memorial Day table setting prepared during the service in remembrance and honor of those who served and sacrificed.

The empty chair represents their absence.

The white rose symbolizes remembrance and the loved ones who continue to carry their memory forward.

The candle represents hope.

The lemon reminds us of the bitterness of loss and fate.

The salt symbolizes the tears shed by families and friends.

The inverted glass reflects the fallen's inability to share the meal.

Often referred to as the Missing Man Table or Fallen Soldier Table, each element carries symbolic meaning. Once again, we honor those who served and sacrificed, especially those who never returned home. 🕯✨️
