This Memorial Day, our hearts were with those who gave everything in service to our country. 🇺🇸
At Gethsemane, we gathered in prayer, remembrance, and gratitude—holding space for the families who carry the loss of a loved one and honoring the courage of the men and women who never returned home. It was a meaningful time of reflection as our community stood together to remember, mourn, and give thanks.
We’re grateful to everyone who joined us for this important day, and to our local news partners for helping share these stories of remembrance with the wider Charlotte community.
