Memorial for a Neighbor

Many College Terrace residents likely remember the homeless man who often pushed a large cart around the area and slept on the street. He died a few weeks ago, on a cold night in front of the old Common Grounds building on College Avenue.

On Sunday, March 27 at 2pm, University Lutheran Church is holding a memorial for our neighbor on the green at the church. People are invited to share brief reflections and/or readings as part of the service. Because our neighbor was reluctant to share his name, Pastor Greg has opted to refer to him by the Biblical name, “Theophilus,” which means, “Beloved of God,” and hopes all will feel welcome to join and participate in the service.
