This Sunday, June 14, in the beginning of the church service from Grove Lake Lutheran Church will be using this service as a memorial for Ginny Davenport as there will be no formal funeral or memorial service for her at another time. As such, I will give an opportunity for reflection on who Ginny was and how she touched our lives. There will also be some special music by Susan and Dan, and the sermon, while proclaiming Christ, will also so in the context of Ginny’s life.
