Youth Kept
Vigil in Grace Cathedral in San Francisco
Sixteen middle school
and high school youth from Lynnewood joined 75 Episcopal youth from northern California in a Martin
Luther King WatchNight experience at Grace Cathedral. Thanks to Diana Bohn,
Jim Be., Greg P., and Kimberly C. for accompanying the youth, and to Linda
W. and Anne A. for driving. What an experience to wake-up on the floor of
the cathedral with the sun beginning to light the stained glass windows of
the sanctuary! The youth marched in the Martin Luther King march, served in
mission teams to accomplish tasks at various sites in the city, engaged in
rousing rounds of “Cathedral Commando” and worshipped, ate, and crafted
together.
