To others and supporting in time of need. Faith, hope, love, humbleness and being there for one another transcended everything spoken of for the evening! Well done to all for a heartwarming and touching event. The speakers were Rev. O’Rourke and Vicar Justin Lathrop, Ascension Lutheran Church; Rev. Underwood, Community Presbyterian church; Monsignor Gaeta and Reverends Costs, Grieco, Sang, St. Cyril and Methodius R.C. Church, OLOR Chaplain Father Kayser and Asst.
