Leaders from the United Church of Christ, the Rev. Dr. Karen Georgia Thompson, General Minister and President and the Rev. Shari Prestemon, Acting Associate General Minister, have shared a powerful call for peace during our Holy Week journey.
A voice was heard in Ramah, wailing and loud lamentation, Rachel weeping for her children; she refused to be consoled, because they are no more.
— Matthew 2:18
