As All Saint’s Day and Dia de Los Muertos approaches, the CUCC Youth are creating an Ofrenda (offering) walk through our newly paved Memorial Garden. The walk is intended to help us understand the complexity of transitions, the power of memory, and the celebration of life. It will also hopefully continue to link us to the experiences we had and the friends we met in Oaxaca, Mexico, while on our International Mission Trip in 2019.
Please visit our Memorial Garden anytime from November 2-24, and take your time journeying through the walkway. There will be places for you to engage: invitations for you to remember, to pray, and to leave your own offerings for loved ones.
You are invited to share a photo of a loved one who has died, for display in the garden. Please take a picture of a printed photo or send a digital image via text to 919-961-8814 or email to education.cucc@gmail.com. Śānti will print it and laminate it so it will be weather proof for display in the Ofrenda Memorial Walk.
Please send photos by October 30 to Śānti at education.cucc@gmail.com.
