OUC Christmas Memory Tree

For the second year in a row, the community at Orleans United is hanging Christmas decorations on our memory tree. The names of those who are not with us, for whatever reason, are printed on the decorations and held warmly in our hearts.


OUC World Compassionate Communities Day Candlelit Walk

Many people have sent in the names of those who have died during COVID, so we could create a permanent remembrance to them. We miss them so much. As you can see, the glass is frosted. We cannot see beyond death. But what we see is that light filters through telling us that on the other side is love. Those who have died are surrounded by love. It is up to us on this side of the glass to surround each other with love
