What story will your legacy tell? 💙

For this week’s Thoughtful Thursday, our Executive Director, Jessica Root, shares how an unexpected role as a cemetery manager shaped her perspective on faith, planning ahead, and living with purpose.

Her reflection invites us to consider the people we love, the causes we care about, and the story we’re writing through our lives today.
